Rates spent on extravagance

I am astounded that my rates have been used to fund the luxury Terrigal Trojans Rugby Club, sandstone blocks and all, to the tune of what now totals $427,000, while our roads are in disrepair and our beachfronts a disgrace.

Mayor Chris Holstein and his Liberal mates used the mayoral casting vote to ensure that those who guaranteed the monies to construct such an extravagant club house don't get stuck with the bill.

They should be ashamed with themselves.
