Facing the rubbish problem head on

Tell us what you think about Kerbside collections:
Any other comments on Kerbside collections:
Very little thought appears to have been given to this area of multiple Bins - Living in a Town House complex there is little storage space available & many places are like this throughout the MPDC. Also imagine the kerbside on collection day with 1 x 80L Bin 3 crates & a food bin outside each residence. Beside a household of 2 (or 1) elderly persons create a lot les rubbish than a large family.
Presently I (as many others do) Fill only 1 Rubbish Bag per fortnight - Why should we have to pay for something we don't use?
Please be realistick.
Tell us what you think about Resource recovery centres:
Our preferred option – establish two resource recovery centres
Any other comments on Resource recovery centres:
But leave the Te Aroha transfer station open.

Revitalising our town centres

Tell us what you think about Revitalising our town centres:
Our preferred option – improve our town centres
Any other comments on Revitalising our town centres:
We need legal authority to stop absentee owners of Retail/Commercial space leaving these premises vacant for long periods - using them for the purpose of negative gearing - The countries Govt are clamping down on Residential Rentals - why not commercial ones too!
(Local Councils need to lobby NZ Govt.)

Mountain bike skills and dog park for Te Aroha

Tell us what you think about Mountain bike skills and dog park for Te Aroha:
Any other comments on Mountain bike skills and dog park for Te Aroha:
Whilst I agree in principle the need for a Dog exercise park I do not agree to General Rates covering the Cost - Dog owners pay a Registration Fee (or should) Include any cost in the Dog Registration Fee.

Any other comments on Dog park in Matamata:
As above - Let Dog owners pay for it.
What do you think about our proposed limits for rates and debt?
Well proposed & well presented.
What do you think about our plans for our other projects?
As funds become available - yes but some projects whilst nice to have are not essential i.e Destination Playgrounds.
