Rates due 27 April - pay early and receive a 10% discount on general rates

Keep an eye on your letterbox with rates notices set to arrive from Monday, 28 March 2022.

Prompt payment of rates will secure a 10 per cent discount on general rates, if paid before Wednesday, 27 April 2022.

The 10 per cent discount applies to general rates, and excludes all utility, special rates and charges, provided outstanding amounts and overdue rates and interest are paid in full by the due date.

Significant work has been done to keep the overall rates increase for 2021/22 to 2.4%, following on from the rates freeze for residential and rural properties last financial year.

Council have reduced the cent in the dollar for general rates to offset some big increases to land values, in particular agricultural land values, as a result of Queensland Government land valuations.

If you have not received your rates notice by Friday, 8 April 2022 please contact Council.

Residents are encouraged to get ahead of their bills and prepay their rates. You have the option to BPAY payments weekly, fortnightly or monthly.

Each property has a unique payment reference – please check your notice to make sure you are using the most up to date payment reference.

If you have recently moved or changed your contact details, please check that you have informed Council to ensure delivery of rates notices on time.

Ratepayers can register their details for electronic notices by phoning 1300 ISAACS (1300 472 227) and speaking to Council’s Rates Team between 8.30am to 5pm Monday to Friday.  Alternatively, an email can be sent to [email protected]
