Funding primary industry compliance

We’re proposing a change to the way we fund our primary industry compliance activities.

This will include a new mix of targeted and general rate funding, the cessation of the existing permitted activity monitoring rate, and the introduction of a new primary industry compliance rate which will be assessed against all properties 20 hectares or greater in area.

There is no impact on the council’s borrowing as a result of this proposal.
