Wellington City Council considers sweeping rates changes (www.rnz.co.nz)

They're considering moving towards rates based on land value, rather than land+improvements. Land value tax seems to be all the rage lately.

Admittedly, I didn't mind paying rates. The value for money is good and I'd happily pay a bit more too is it means better services and support for those who can't pay.
