Sir
So when will the Council come back to hard-pressed businesses on the rates debacle?
We read in a recent Courier about the Council’s promise to conduct an urgent investigation following Councillor Raubenheimer’s comments at the Council meeting where Councillors from other parties appear to agree with him.
The rates increases, we think, are not clearly understood by many. Valuations of properties are one thing but the formula – the cents in the Rand – is another. How can one justify rates hikes of over 110%, 180%?
Surely this cannot be right even if the valuations did go up in the past five years.
Surely it is just common logic?
This Council said Trust Us when they took power and we are putting our trust in them to deliver a solution.
