On the well aired subject of the charge for the collection of garden waste, a word of warning. Once a charge like this is imposed it rarely remains static and is likely to increase year by year.
Effectively this has already happened. Option 3 in the consultation leaflet gave the proposed charge as £35. Perhaps the councillor responsible for finance can explain why already there is a £5 increase. Even the few voting for this may have been led up the garden path.
