Consultation on the Multiple Pan Wastewater Remissions Policy Review ended at 5pm, Friday 9 April 2021.

 

On Tuesday 29 June 2021, Council will formally adopt the Multiple Pan Wastewater Remissions Policy. The public are welcome to attend this meeting.

 

Policy comes into effect 1 July 2021.

This policy allows for fair and reasonable relief to property owners, who have wastewater charges greater than a domestic household based on the presence of multiple pans, but who believe that their wastewater charges are not a true reflection of their actual use of wastewater treatment capacity.


Reviewing the policy allows Council to make sure that it reflects current situations, that the policy delivers on its purpose and that Council meets its legislative requirements.


Have your say before 5pm, Friday 9 April 2021.




Key changes proposed in the draft policy:

Whilst the policy is proposed to largely continues as is, the new section states that Council Community Halls and Marae will be fully remitted for the multiple pan charge wastewater rate.


Through the review, it was identified that both Council Community Halls and Marae provide for community wellbeing. They both act as community meeting spaces and are used to support communities in civil defence emergencies.


The full remission of the multiple pan charge will encourage connections and deliver environmental benefits as well. It should be noted that payment of the Uniform Targeted Rate (currently $944.09 in 2020/2021) is still payable aside from the remission of multiple pan charges.
