Backyard dumping could escalate under user-pays rubbish plan - tenants group

A tenants rights group is warning that backyard dumping will escalate if council chiefs get a user-pays plan wrong for Christchurch's kerbside collection.
The Christchurch City Council is surveying 16,000 residents for their thoughts on charges based on the size of rubbish, recycling and greens bins.
The plan is to reduce trash going into landfills with a separate charge instead of it being blended into landowners' rates bills.
