Rate rises are in the offing for Isle of Man residents, when a sharp rise in waste disposal charges is imposed on local authorities next year.
It's emerged the Infrastructure minister has approved a 14 per cent increase in charges for disposal at the incinerator.
The cost is set to go up from £30.74 to £35 a tonne, from next April.
Clerk to Lonan Commissioners Peter Hill says his board will have to find an extra £2,000 a year.
He says the increase will be passed onto ratepayers but will hit the lowest paid the hardest:
Southern 100 planning to run classic sidecars for 2026
BMA to ballot doctors in the IOM for industrial action
Manx air quality 'significantly' better than UK average
Visitors told "take extra care" as TT Fan Park to reopen
