Tauranga council

Philip from Maungatapu

It is no wonder our rates increase is over 12 % with all the wants and need of the staff. Free coffee, massage, donuts and many more perks. This council is no better than the commissioner's. With the normal person struggling to survive and put food on the table I was shocked to read on STUFF of all the many perks they are allowing. With a large wage that they get, I say let them buy their coffees and other non essentials. They are ripping us off big time.
