A Fitzroy pensioner has been left fuming after the City of Yarra dropped its seniors discount.
Yesterday, it cost 71-year-old Raymond $5.90 for a swim, spa, sauna, steam and a locker.
Today, when he visited Fitzroy Pool, the same thing cost him $17.
“It’s a 288 per cent increase,” he told Neil Mitchell.
“They’ve dropped any sort of discount seniors get.”
3AW Mornings has contacted Yarra Council for comment and is awaiting a response.
