Ratepayers count

We request all residents and ratepayers of the City of Casey to withhold paying their rates until the council removes the $25.5 million from the budget which has been slyly added for the construction of Bunjil Place and which many ratepayers are not aware off.
This monstrous structure is going ahead without proper funding with only $10 million from the Federal Government and with only a handful of a ridiculous 82 per cent of a survey of 500 people when the population of the City of Casey is 288,000.
There is no proof of this survey when we asked for it, which goes to show that it is a bogus survey to just house new offices for council.
Remember, ratepayers, the balance of $115 million will have to be paid by us ratepayers if we do not stand up and question the functioning of this council.
On behalf of the residents and ratepayers of the City of Casey.
Dunstan Girton,
Louis Kotsiras,
Hampton Park.
