8/16/2019 Rodney Leaflet Final (Web Version)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/rodney-leaflet-final-web-version 1/2
We are a group of citizens
who formed the Auckland
Ratepayers’ Alliance to
fight Auckland Council
wasting our money andhiking rates. We believe
the Council needs to stop
WWW.RATEPAYERS.NZ
Under Auckland Council’s new plans, waste
charges will double for many of those living
in the Rodney ward.
Internal Auckland Council documents exposedby the Ratepayers’ Alliance show that theCouncil is planning to hike rates to subsidisenew Council-run waste operations. Rightnow private competition has kept our wastecharges among the lowest in Auckland – so theCouncil’s going to hike rates to “standardise”and expand its empire. That means yourhousehold will being paying more.
RODNEY & WAITAKERE ARE
ABOUT TO BE STUNG WITH
HIGHER WASTE CHARGES
THE CHANGES MEAN:
• Those living in the former Rodney District
will pay 46% more
• Those living in the former Waitakere City
will pay 107% more
wasting money before it puts its hands deeper
into your pockets.
Unlike Len Brown’s army of spin doctors, we
are not funded by the Council. Our power
comes from numbers – that’s why we need
you to join and support us in giving ordinary
ratepayers a voice
to demand a better
deal from Auckland
Council.

Rodney Ward Councillor Penny Webster
claims that the Council’s proposed waste
management system is “more efficient” and“cost effective” despite it resulting in dramatic
increases in charges and less flexibility for
Rodney ratepayers.
We say that Councillor Webster should be
fighting to allow Rodney householders to
opt-out of the Council’s new and expensive
regime, and let residents continue to choose
the best service for them. RODNEY EDITION

out private waste operators is good for
Rodney despite it costing households
much more

• Supported Len Brown’s high rate, high
debt agenda
