In March 2022, the Waikato District Council opened up consultation for a targeted rate to cover the local food waste collection service.
The council received a total of 657 submissions with 55% supporting the collection with an annual targeted rate of $72.90, and 45% opposing the proposal.
Submissions will now be analysed and they will be used as part of Council’s decision making process.
The decision is due in June.
Council thanked the Raglan community for taking part in the Food Waste Collection Consultation.
