From Nikki:
”I received an email today from one of our ward councillors, Bill McClenaghan, advising that an error has occurred at the printers, who are contracted by Hepburn Shire to print and post out all rates notices, info sheets and free tip vouchers. The printers incorrectly applied the agreed allocation of free tip vouchers in reverse to Council’s intention.
As a consequence those receiving the new kerbside collections have been sent twelve free tip vouchers instead of two and those who opted out, or who were not in the service areas, have been sent only two free tip vouchers instead of twelve.
Cr. Bill McClenaghan assures that this error will be sorted out soon. Council’s contractors have accepted responsibility for this error and will be contacting everyone affected by it to explain. Residents will receive the correct number of vouchers printed in another colour. The orange vouchers are now null and void and should be discarded in your recycling.
In the meantime existing tip vouchers for 2014 – 2015 are still valid until their expiry date in about a month’s time.”
(I have just been watching ”Utopia” on ABC… I don’t suppose that is relevant).
Damn, I’ll have to clean out the shed in the next four weeks after all.
