Local Water Done Well feedback
Which water services delivery model do you support?
Why did you choose this option?
Do you have any other feedback related to the proposed water services delivery models?
See my attached submission.
I see we are presented with two options for ‘Local Water Done Well’. There was a third - I believe that if the Council had supported the previous New Zealand Government’s Three Waters proposal, the current proposed rates increases would be much less. The underground infrastructure is not an asset (in the broader sense of the word) – nobody wants to buy them and they only cost dollars for upgrades/renewals = They are liabilities. Why didn’t we move them on when we could? A question for all New Zealand’s ratepayers.
If the increases as proposed are proceeded with, the Council will need to ensure its processes for rates relief are broad and do not force people to go without necessities to pay their rates.
