On 4 December 2024, Principal, Kyle Gillan and Lawyer, Gemma Getson hosted a free online seminar on Waste Service Charges: Challenges and Opportunities for Local Government
Changes to the Local Government Act 1989 in recent years have reduced what service charges Council’s can charge to residents and businesses for the services they provide. In a capped rates environment, and with the rising costs associated with waste and resource recovery services, it is more important than ever to properly understand what costs Councils can recuperate under the legislation and the corresponding Ministerial Good Practice Guidelines.
This session discussed insights into the considerations required when setting service charges under the Local Government Act 1989.
