Petición dirigida a: Hawkesbury City Council

Hawkesbury City Council is proposing a Special Rate Variation (SRV)—a planned increase in residential rates over the next three years of 40%. The purpose of this SRV is to secure additional funding to renew, maintain, and improve essential infrastructure across the region, with a particular focus on our local road network.
Council states that the SRV will help address the backlog of road repairs, enhance long-term asset management, and ensure safer, more reliable transport routes for residents and businesses. The proposed increase is intended to support sustainable service delivery and reduce reliance on short-term fixes.

Razones.

  • We oppose the 40% rate hike because it worsens the cost-of-living crisis for many struggling families
  • It doesn't stop Council wasting money on non-essential projects while neglecting critical infrastructure
Muchas gracias por su apoyo, David Ball, Pitt Town

If council can "selloff" the water waste to Sydney Water because of their own negligence, they certainly do not need my 40% extra in rates.
