Palmerston North City Council invites feedback on proposed updates to fees and charges for trade waste, planning and miscellaneous services.
We review these fees every year to ensure there is enough revenue to cover increases in operational costs and to satisfy the requirements of our Revenue and Financing Policy. In some cases, there are specific bylaws which also need to be satisfied.
If approved, the new fees will take effect from 1 July 2025.
What may change?
- The proposed changes to the various volume-based charges for trade waste reflect the trade waste volumes and costs for the last 2 years and are based on formulae contained in the Palmerston North Waste Bylaw. These charges are proposed to increase by 10 to 13%. Sampling and analysis charges for compliance monitoring are proposed to increase by 7% to cover increasing costs.
- Fees and charges for planning and miscellaneous services are proposed to increase by approximately 3.7% to cover increasing costs. No change is proposed to any deposits that will be payable.
You can get more information, including the proposals and the schedules of proposed fees and charges, in the following ways:
