Waitomo District Council adopted its Long Term Plan 2024-2034 (LTP) on 25 June 2024 after completing a consultation process with the community between 16 April and 17 May 2024.

The LTP will be made available from early July 2024 on our website. Printed copies will also be available.

You are welcome to view the LTP at the WDC Customer Service Centre at 160 Rora Street, Te Kūiti, or the Library on Taupiri Street.

Fees and Charges 2024/25

On 25 June 2024, Council adopted the fees and charges for 2024/25 after completing a consultation process with the community between 16 April and 17 May 2024. These fees and charges apply from 1 July 2024.

The Animal and Dog Control Act and Food Act fees were adopted on 4 June 2024.

Due to the impact of rising costs Council has increased most fees and charges by 5% in line with inflation. This ensures costs are recovered so that Council services are not subsidised further by rates.

The schedule of Fees and Charges will be available from our website  from early July 2024.

You can request a hardcopy of the fees and charges by contacting our Customer Services Team on 0800 932 4357 or email [email protected]
