Rates Increase
Hi All, is anyone else of the opinion (as I am) that we should be getting a rates REBATE rather than a preposterous 16% increase? I say this, as when I drive around the Hutt Valley, on sections where there were once one or two homes - 1 or 2 lots of rates - there can now be a huge number of homes. Many, many multi property sections now, new subdivisions as well, all presumably paying rates. I would love to hear from someone who knows the net gain in actual properties over the last two to three years. It must be hundreds and hundreds.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?
Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
