Simon says cap your rates – how will councils respond?

Nelson’s mayor campaigned on a 5% rates increase cap but the long term plan already had increases under that and he also refused to answer questions on how long term infrastructure investment and maintenance could be kept within that cap
It’s illogical to just have a cap but no implementation plan
