Rural dog owners to get $20 discount

Robert Steven Reporter from Taupō Times

Taupō District Council is providing pet dog owners in rural areas with a $20 discount (or refund, if already paid) on their dog registration costs.

The decision was made on Tuesday in response to a large number of complaints about the increase from $25 to $85 (the registration cost paid by urban owners.

Rural dog owners -- what do you think about the $20 refund?

Pretty sweet deal? Happy to be heard? Or do you feel the cost, even at $65, is still unfair, given dog control costs are largely incurred by dogs in urban areas?

Please let us know :)

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
