Let's Talk About Rates (and other stuff)
Current location in the site
Draft Annual Budget Public Meeting
Have your say at a public meeting
In its Draft Annual Budget, to be released for public submissions on 24 March, the council will propose some rates increases for:
- Sewerage
- Swimming pools
- Water
- Refuse collection
- Reserves
- Libraries
- Community centres and halls
Although the economy is gradually improving, the council is mindful of the strain that rate increases might place on some ratepayers and is carefully considering which rates to increase and by how much.
Unfortunately some increases are necessary to ensure adequate funding for the services which the council provides to the community.
You are invited to a public meeting in your area to hear about and comment on the proposed rate changes.
Key discussion points will include:
- whether smaller rate increases spread over time are better than large catch-up increases; and
- a revised proposal for a Selwyn District Indoor Pool at Rolleston;.
