90 Seconds+ with Invercargill City Mayor Nobby Clark - Rates Battle

We are back on the Mayors favourite topic 'Rates' Council rates are set to rise by 10-14%—a massive increase being suggested by Council CEO Michael Day and senior staff. But is this hike really necessary? Mayor Nobby Clark says NO and believes it should be capped at 3.9%.

With inflation at just 2.3%, should ratepayers be forced to pay more? Or should the council review its spending first before burdening residents with higher rates?
