Email my rates
If you haven’t switched to getting your invoice by email, now’s the time!
Every three months, we will be giving away a $250 voucher. To enter simply complete the form below.
Before you scroll down - take a moment to read the terms and conditions, and eligibility criteria below. If you’re already signed up, you’re in the draw!
You can apply to have your rates emailed to you if you are the ratepayer/owner of the property and your name is on the rates notice. If you own your property with one or more people, you will need to be representing all owners as solely authorised on their behalf.
