Residents and businesses in the area of the Delfland Water Board will pay more water board tax in 2024. The increase in water board tax varies between 5% and 9% and depends on the personal situation of a resident or business owner.
The impact of the new rates on, for example, greenhouse horticulture companies can be seen here on a special budget page of Delfland.
An online debate has ensued, as among others, the water board party AWP Delfland has sparked the discussion about the rates for growers in local media. Hans Middendorp, leader of the water board party AWP, criticizes in the AD (€) the greenhouse horticulture lobby against the increase in rates for growers.
