Ratepayers of the Quilpie Shire Council are advised that rate notices for the period 01 July 2019 to 31 December 2019 were issued on 02 September 2019.
Rates are due Wednesday, 02 October 2019, with the exception of rural landowners in rating categories 6, 8, 9 and 10.Due to the ongoing drought conditions Council has granted an extension of time for these RURAL properties and the due date for payment will be Monday 06 January 2020. The prompt payment discount will be allowed if payment is received by 5.00pm on the applicable due date.
To ensure you don’t miss the discount and to avoid paying interest, please consider BPay and EFT payment clearance timeframes. It is the responsibility of the property owner to advise Council of any change of address.
As per Council’s policy, interest will commence accruing on any outstanding balances the day they become overdue at the rate of 9.83% compounding daily.
If you are experiencing difficulties in paying your rates on time, please contact Council to discuss your options, including entering into a payment plan which, when maintained, will suspend any interest from accumulating.
