Auckland households face a 7.9% rates increase in the draft budget for consultation. The rise is primarily to fund the $235 million annual bill to operate the $5.5 billion City Rail Link, which opens next year. For the average household, rates will increase from $4023 to $4341, a weekly total of $83. The rate increase is in line with the council's long-term plan.
