QLDC provides a range of user pays services throughout the district. These include (but are not limited to) services such as processing building or resource consents, dog registration, access to sport and recreation or community facilities, use of Wānaka airport landing facilities, and carparking.


These fees and charges allow Council to pass on a proportion of the costs to those who use and directly benefit from these services and facilities, reducing the amount of funding that needs to be collected through rates.


Fees and charges are usually reviewed as part of the Long Term Plan or Annual Plan process, however this financial year, the process has been considered separately. This is because QLDC has chosen to adopt a more informal approach to community engagement on its proposed Annual Plan 2025-2026, seeking general feedback instead of a formal consultation.

QLDC is now commencing a separate formal consultation process on proposed changes to user fees and charges to ensure they are reviewed and set ahead of the start of the government sector financial year, coming into effect on 1 July 2025.
