Change the garbage methods to reduce the costs to ratepayers
The domestic waste management charge is to be $234.33. It is compulsory to all residential property.
The Charge to businesses is $133.08 and they can choose to have the service.
Lets make the charge user pays and you choose the number and frequency of the service and only pay for what you require.
Kerbside green waste collection is of very little use to a large number of households and should also be user pays.
Bins in parks and public places are very expensive to maintain. Reducing these to a bare minimum will cut costs considerably. Rangers need to actively fine people who litter.
