Councils are putting a range of ideas on the table to raise revenue, as they push back against the idea of a cap on rates rises.

Rates shot up by an average of 15% this year.

Local Government New Zealand is proposing a range of options from civil defence levies to accommodation levies.

He says that's why a vast range of solutions is important.
