Hamilton City faces a cash crisis.
Councilors are planning to double your rates over the next 5 years and increase city debt to over two billion dollars over the next 10 years.
Council have shown that they cannot spend your money responsibly.
If you are on Hamilton’s electoral role, please sign this petition in support of NO rate increases.
To the Councilors
Hamilton City Council
We the undersigned, do not support the 2024-2034 Long Term Plan to increase rates and Council debt.
The plan would expose the city to unacceptable economic and financial risk.
We request that an independent assessment of the plan be obtained and that the plan be paused until that assessment has been concluded.
