Patrick’s opinion on the proposed Central SRA:
We are already being taxed to death with nothing to show for it. I am already stretched and refuse to pay extra for services that should be already funded.
Patrick is a proud Central Resident in Park Drive.
Editor: The purpose of any SRA is to provide additional services that will further enhance the area and property values. An SRA does not take the place of any municipal services. Previously known as a City Improvement District (CID), a Special Rated Area (SRA) is a specific geographic area within which property owners agree to pay for supplementary services. The Municipal Property Rates Act 2004, allowed for the formation of SRAs which empower property owners to implement additional services in their designated area. Municipalities are obligated to maintain existing service levels after an SRA is established. A strong SRA has better ‘clout’ with the municipality.
