Fees and Charges
On 30 June 2026, Council adopted the fees and charges for 2026/27. These fees and charges apply from 1 July 2026. Due to the impact of rising costs Council has increased most fees and charges by 3% in line with inflation. This ensures costs are recovered so that Council services are not subsidised further by rates.
The most significant changes are:
Consenting fees increases of 5%- PIM charge for granny flats- Landfill and rubbish bags
The schedule of Fees and Charges is available on our website www.waitomo.govt.nz.
