Organisers of Masterton s world-famous Golden Shears will lobby local councillors to tighten rules on solid waste.
Representatives from the annual shearing competition will call for changes to proposed new bylaws in Carterton on Wednesday afternoon.
Councillors from the three districts will hear from two speakers and receive comments from 16 other Wairarapa residents.
The new rules aim to control the dumping of spam mail, the introduction of waste management plans for new buildings, and waste from large public events.
