Rates to increase in 2023
Rates increase could be 13.7 per cent next year. That's to help with the must haves, never mind the poor rate payers that are struggling to make ends meet, and the people who have lost their jobs because of the situations at the moment. Guess we will have to give up any enjoyments in life to line TGA city councils pockets with larger salaries and bigger dreams, and miss out a couple of dinners. Oh well we won't need to hop off to the gym on our scooters to lose weight. Perhaps the Commissioners could see it within their kind and benevolent hearts to donate their disproportionately enormous salaries to ease our financial discomfort to help pay for the $260 million plus project which will be their monument, and is the reason for the sudden increase in the previous increase in our rates!
