In your paper, Tuesday March 2, you presented a rates comparison.
You show a Tauranga Capital Value of $750,000 with a $2210.00 rate take. I have an actual rates bill in front of me for
a $775,000 Capital Value for $2637.52 plus regional rates, making a total of $3146.97 - which is only below Wellington and Christchurch in your comparison.
May I ask when you are quoting such comparisons in the future, you say what is in and what is out and source your material directly.
