New refuse/rubbish pick up...again
Just to remind you: there is a superb online petition sponsored by the Papamoa ratepayers association at www.papamoaprogressive.co.nz...
If you want a reality check, consider how the TCC is "gaslighting" us about their Kerbside rubbish collection mandate for next year. Read the information/research conducted by the Papamoa ratepayers association that follows on from their petition against the TCC's action.
You can go directly to the petition at: www.taurangarubbishoptions.com... . Then just keep scrolling down.
