Wellington residents respond to a proposed rates increase

The Wellington City Council could increase rates by 17-percent in the next year to pay for infrastructure and resilience. Wellington's Mayor Andy Foster has revealed his budget for the city over the next 10 years which focusses on upgrading the city's ageing and failing water pipes as well as earthquake strengthening key public buildings including the main Wellington Library. The President of the Newtown Residents Association, Rhona Carson, speaks with Karyn about the proposal.
