John MacDonald was joined by Christchurch Mayor Phil Mauger for a chat about the biggest issues concerning residents.
Christchurch City Councillors have adopted their Draft Annual Plan.
It now proposes a 7.58% overall rates increase, down from the originally-drafted 8.93%. They achieved this not by cost cutting, as well as paying off less debt, resulting in next year’s rates increasing significantly.
Is the Mayor doing the right thing, or is he just thinking of the next election?
Does he support the proposed ‘user-pays’ water system being introduced for ratepayers?
And Mauger reflects on the response to the second big Port Hills fire now twelve months on from blaze.
