looking at charging people for every compost bin they have.

Could it be this proposal (or similar) in Cheltenham?

"Replacing the existing fortnightly collection service for garden waste
with a charged-for weekly service, also from September 2009, collected at
the same time and in the same vehicles as the kitchen waste. Households
who wish to participate in the weekly garden waste collection service will
be provided with a special wheeled bin for this service at the cost of
£30.00 per bin per annum or £15.00 for those households in receipt of
council tax benefit.."
