Rates

Rate notices are issued twice yearly in March and August. 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.

For further information please contact Council’s Customer Service Centre on (07) 4656 0500.

Ratepayers will receive a discount of 10% if rates (including any overdue rates) are paid in full by the date nominated on the notice.
