To read this makes me sick, personally I have not received even a cost of living raise for at least five years working for local government. How can this be justified, well it can’t. The cost of everything is on the rise, while most suffer and cut back to survive to see this sort of excess is disgusting. They should be taking a pay cut if anything!

If I where an animal at the zoo I would look at the Aquarium and ask ‘why do the fish have it so good’, our zoo is shameful; for a city that has done so much in the past years I personally find it disgusting our leadership has not taken the same time, money and energy to upgrade/relocate/improve our zoo!
