Draft User Fees & Charges 2025/26
The feedback period on our user fees and charges for 2025/26 has ended
We review our user fees and charges each year to make sure they’re fit for purpose and keep up with changing costs.
A month-long public consultation period ended on 28 March 2025. Council is expected to make its final decisions and adopt the final User Fees & Charges 2025/26 on 27 May 2025.
Our Draft User Fees & Charges 2025/26 document outlines the proposed updates we’re seeking feedback on.

Normally we consult on user fees and charges together with our Annual Plan.
This year we’re not consulting on our Annual Plan, as it’s not expected to contain any significant changes to what's in the Long Term Plan we adopted last year (which we consulted widely on).
We’re still required to develop an Annual Plan for 2025/26, and through that process we’re working hard to get rates lower than what was originally projected for the coming year. The final plan will be available mid-year.
