Say NO to Council plans for Rubbish and Recycling

I do not wish my rates to increase so that I can have 4 bins at my place as I wouldn't use all the services. We are into recylcing and composting so don't have a great deal of rubbish, we should not be lumped in the same catagory as someone who would use all the services. It would be unfair for Council to make this decision on behalf of everyone, after all aren't council supposed to look after the costs incurred for each rate payer? We would still have to pay for seperate services to remove other items that the council services wont cater for, such as flax, bamboo, pampas grass, palm branches and cabbage trees. If people are paying more rates for all their waste removal then they will put that plus other nasties in the bins too creating an even worse problem for our environment. User pays is much fairer system.
