Council also approved some changes to fees and charges for Township services, which Mayor Bignucolo says is "mostly cost of living", but also includes a student rate for the bus and increases for "non-ratepayers" for services such as the landfill - water and sewer rates and property taxes are not included, instead stemming from the forthcoming budget.
