one-off pool registration fee
Has anyone else received this letter ?
A one-off pool registration fee of $134.20. This fee will be charged to all current pool owners whose pool is recorded on council’s residential swimming pool and spa pool register, and will be applied to the owners of all new pools that are installed and entered onto the register.
An inspection fee of $157.30 at the time of the scheduled pool safety barrier inspection.
Re-inspection fees of at least $69.60. If a second inspection is required to recheck any issues that were found to be non-compliant, this will be charged in 20-minute increments at a rate of $69.60 per 20 minutes. Most re-inspections don’t take longer than 20 minutes.
Clearly the council already has a register as they sent us a letter telling us about the new fees. We also had to get consent from them to build it and code of compliance (also charged for) to have it signed off. Plus we have been rechecked in the two years we have had the pool.
So can someone from the council please tell me what the one-off pool registration fee of $134.20 is for, with a break down of this cost. It seems to be a revenue gathering exercise to me. Look forward to hearing from you Tauranga city council, would really like a break down of these costs and when they were decided and by whom....

Possessions sold as one lot
Morning everyone 😊
I am wanting to sell our mother's possessions as one lot and not individually; ive heard there are people who do this. .
Does anyone know of someone or where I might start?
Shame on You!
This is what greeted workers at Brookfield Sallies yesterday morning. All of it looks like it should have gone straight to the tip, which is what the Sallies will now have to pay to do. Surely whoever does this has no conscience. The Sallies do an amazing job of helping people in times of need and they don't need to be spending any money they receive on doing your dirty work, especially at this time of year.
