In discussions with rural residents, they tell me they don't want to pay one red cent for something they may never use. I agree. If the haulers are charged a tipping fee and that fee is passed on to the customer then that's fine. Rural residents tell me they don't mind paying for something they use but NO TAXES, NO LOT LEVIES and NO DEVELOPMENT CHARGES. If elected I will do what it takes to ensure their wishes are put on the Council table.
Position - Sadly I think that the septage levy will already have been passed prior to the elect or at least before the new council sits. I am against any additional charge to the rural community above and beyond tipping fees for the sewage treatment plant.
