Another rates rise!
City councils is the only body still in existence (directly involved in building process) after liquidation of the building companies. Building inspectors should be ensuring that the building process was in compliance of the building code. So city council should bear full responsibility if the companies no longer exist.
Increasing rates should not be the solution. Rate payers were in no way responsible for the leaky buildings so we should not pay.
Can ratepayers take legal action to prevent another rates rise because of this?
