resident Margaret Urch is angry she is paying so much in rates
据2008年8月19日《Waverley Leader》报道,墨尔本东南较多华人聚居的Mt Waverley, Oakleigh和Glen Waverley所在的Monash City Council根据两年一次的州政府房产估价收取市政费Council Rate。由于近两年来该市政区域内房产价格飚涨,新财年的市政费也随之水涨船高,最多的涨幅高达30%。
家住Mt Waverley的居民Ray Price表示他的市政费从上一年度的$1300元上涨到$1800元,几乎无法承受。
不过,同一市政区域内的Mulgrave和Wheelers Hill两区部分居民由于其房产土地估价低于平均水平,反而应缴市政费录得轻微下跌。
