CARRIED 19 Local board feedback on the kerbside refuse charging mechanism policy Resolution number DT/2021/145 MOVED by Chairperson R Jackson, seconded by Deputy Chairperson J O'Connor: That the Devonport-Takapuna Local Board: a) support retaining the current hybrid charging model for kerbside rubbish collections with some areas on a Pay-As-You-Throw (PAYT) model and other areas rates-funded at this time. b) support retaining the current weekly general waste collections. c) believe that no change should be made to the status quo – that is the frequency of general waste collections or the current hybrid charging model – until the following investigations have been completed and, if supported, successfully implemented: i) RFID-chipped bins ii) weekly food scraps collection; and iii) weekly recycling collection. d) request that all of the options listed in resolution c) include analysis of whether it will achieve reduced waste to landfills, whether charges should be based on volume or weight, cost to council, cost to consumers, the cost of changing from one charging model or collection frequency to another, health and safety, and environmental and climate effects. e) note that the former North Shore City Council, including the Devonport-Takapuna Local Board area, moved to PAYT general waste services and rates-funded kerbside recycling collections more than 30 years ago, achieving significant reductions in waste going to landfills. There is a high degree of support for the user-pays model for general waste, which places the responsibility on those creating the waste and not the homeowner. f) note that some of the information in the research and reports appears to be contradictory, and there are still many gaps in our knowledge, with investigations of some options still to be completed.

Devonport-Takapuna Local Board 21 September 2021 board considers that we should not contemplate any change to the status quo until these have been resolved. We also seek clarification and further information on the following: i) further analysis on whether PAYT areas of Auckland produce less general waste per capita than rates-funded areas. ii) further comparison and analysis of the number of households using council and private rubbish collections, a deeper understanding of what drives their choices, and the impact on council bin-tag revenue and collection costs; and iii) the effect of Covid lockdowns on PAYT bin tag revenue. g) request that council advocate to the government that a greater onus for waste reduction be placed on manufacturers and retailers. h) recognise that providing additional waste diversion services such as food scraps collections, more frequent recycling collections, and education on waste minimisation, has the greatest effect on reducing the volume of waste sent to landfills, and supports greater investment in these areas. i) note that the National Waste Disposal Levy is increasing from the current rate of $10 tonne to $60 per tonne in 2024 and recommends that council advocate to government for funding from the levy to support waste minimisation initiatives and activities.

Devonport-Takapuna Local Board 21 September 2021 environment, and this this must be carefully weighed and balanced in relation the nuisance factor in our intentifying urban areas; and v) note concerns from submitters than onerous or expensive licensing requirements could lead to non-compliance and have the unintended effect of contributing to the spread of bee diseases such as American Foulbrood. d) support Proposal 2 to incorporate rules from another bylaw about the feeding of animals on private property, noting that 50% of local submitters favoured this proposal, 33% opposed, and 17% did not respond. e) support Proposal 3 to update the definitions, structure, format and wording of the Bylaw and controls, noting that 33% of local submitters favoured this proposal, 50% were ‘other’, and 17% did not respond.
