of this memorandum is to set the rates for the 2019/2020 financial year. The rates are
driven from the adopted

for odour – the
frequency, intensity, duration, offensiveness, and
location of the event. In terms of the intensity of
a dust event being deemed offensive or
objectionable, it can be noted that in situations
involving exposure by the general public, the
experience of the Council is that a deposition rate
of more than O.13 grams per square metre per
day can lead to justified complaints. For
suspended dust, an ambient concentration of
around 3 mg per cubic metre is the point at which
surplus of $761,000 (total
comprehensive income). Expenditure was $777,000 below
budget while revenue was $238,000 above budget. This was
a good result, noting that general rates had been raised by
around 1.5% for each of the previous two years, which is
well below inflation levels. The Council’s balance sheet
remains very strong with no public debt.

compliance rate for failure to meet resource consent
conditions was 6.6% for dairy farms, a small change from the
previous year. The Council will continue to monitor farm
dairy effluent systems closely to ensure compliance with the
Council’s requirements.
Complementing the agricultural monitoring programme, the
Council inspected 221 minor industrial operations in

STRONG FINANCIAL POSITION
The Council finished the 2015/2016 year with a surplus
of $963,000 (total comprehensive income). Expenditure
was $373,000 over budget, in large part due to the
Council providing unbudgeted emergency funding to
assist those in need following the severe winter storm
damage. Overall it was a good result, noting that
general rates increases have been at or below the rate
of inflation
rating for their environmental and administrative performance during the period
under review.
Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the receiving environment from the
activities during the monitoring year. Administrative performance is concerned with the Company’s
approach to demonstrating consent compliance in site operations and management including the timely
provision of information to Council (such as contingency plans and water take data) in accordance

equipment and associated infrastructure; and
obtaining manual measurements of groundwater levels in the production and
observation bores and retrieving electronic data.

electronically at the site by a data logging system and transferred to the Council via telemetry,
so the data can be viewed in real time. Three groundwater monitoring bores were also

also installed within the vicinity of the production bore to monitor the effects of the abstraction
