Sarah, I agree with you.
But it is a matter of options.
We don't have to offer this service.
You have had it free for two-three years whilst others have paid or not had the service at all.
In an ideal world where cuts did not have to take place we would have extended the service to all free.
That was not an option.
I accept it is not popular but in view of debate on this forum about what services people want in their communities & why they don't get them this is probably one of the least worst options.
As someone who probably had eight sacks + each pick up I personally notice the difference & have had to make choices.
If you want to pay more Council Tax I can offer you the service but the govt. caps the level at which we can increase & also reduces our grant £2.4m last year £800k this year, £500k next year & the year after.
So the hard options are taken.
