Proposal to do $4.28 million catchment protection.
Low land get flooded.
Low land 20 farmers don't want it because stop banks will upset my farming.
Law land 20 farmers want it.
A small portion of general rate regionally goes to stop banks and flood protection.
This is 50% funding from regional council. Direct share could be $500,000 per farm.
This is via the local Governemnt Act process we are consulting.
Contractors have put up prices because of lot of work happening with state highway one.
Then farmers could use their own local contractors to do the work.
This was good to have south waikato council asked by regional council these hard questions to show how to run the special consultative procedure.
When it gets too complicated for some councillors they revert to status quo.
But for others who are intellectually curious the bigger questions come out and that is rating falls on individual or should farms be seen as an individual in its own right.
