Gardeners are to be charged an extra £25 on top of their council tax to have their brown bins emptied.
Senior councillors have approved an annual charge for fortnightly collections of garden waste, which will start in March 2016.

We've made a lot of compost!
Northumberland have charged for a couple of years now.
