Beware developers or if subdividing a section off your existing property.
I have no idea what subdividers contribute to the extension of services these days but councils often complain about the cost of the same even if already paid for. The latter however is a common action as the push to increase property density or mitigate a growing rates problem. Are there hidden 3 Waters costs. How do this compare with existing costs?
See below for an example -
"Contributions related to wastewater or water supply are charged separately through Watercare Services Ltd. These are called Infrastructure Growth Charges (IGC). Similar to development contributions, these would be payable in situations where a new site connects to the publicly reticulated wastewater or water supply network, or similarly a new dwelling doing the same.
The IGC for the metropolitan area is $11,680 plus GST However if you are doing your development in more remote settlements or townships such as Wellsford or Helensville, the costs are considerably higher at $18,556 plus GST and $22,080 plus GST".
Do we need more bureauracy?
