Hi everyone,

The council’s proposed 40% rate increase is currently under review by IPART (Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal). This is our final opportunity to voice our opposition and stop the increase from going ahead.

If you haven’t already, please use the link below to complete a formal submission and survey:

Thank you to everyone for signing the petition and done the Submission and Survey. By speaking up, we are not only speaking up for our own households but also supporting those in our community who are already struggling with the cost of living and cannot afford this additional burden.


Help us to strengthen citizen participation. We want to support your petition to get the attention it deserves while remaining an independent platform.
