The NZHerald reports today that rates are rising in the Auckland supercity by 9.5%.
This is the collection of cities, you will recall, that became a supercity four years ago.
The promise was that a supercity would make everything more efficient. That means they can do more for less.
The reality is that they can’t.
Supercities get supersized egos, supersized salaries and supersized schemes.
Hutt residents, vote small, and keep your rates down!
