PETITION AGAINST KEMPSEY RATE RISE
To IPART
PO Box Q290
QVB POST OFFICE NSW 1230
We the undersigned request that you refuse the application for a Special Rate Variation by the Kempsey Shire Council on the grounds that it will cause considerable hardship and stress to a large proportion of property owners already struggling in this low socio-economic rural area.
Council informed residents the survey conducted by the council recently in 2011 resulted in the majority of responding residents not wanting the rate rise with a preference towards reduced services.
We request better management of current funds and services. Public meetings held by Council regarding the proposed rate increase also found an overwhelming response against the proposed rate rise.
