Nah, I think it's unfair on the ratepayers. Our rates in Murupara tend to be much lower.

I feel it's not. The council should be covering the cost, it's a massive money earner for them. It shouldn't be left to ratepayers.

Why not? Let me tell you, I've been in this game for many years and council never changes.

Maybe, the museum is great for visitors and locals. My 5-year-old daughter loves going there.
