Application for Rates Remissions for Not-For-Profit Organisations

Application Information

Please refer to Council's Rate Rebates and Remissions Policy for more information.
The remission(s), if approved, will apply from the start of the rating period in which the application was successful and will be shown on the current rate notice or an amended rate notice will be issued.
It is the reponsibility of the organisation to contact Council when there is a change to their situation which could affect the status of the remission(s). If appropriate notice is not given to Council and adjustments of remission(s) are required, the organisation could be liable to reimburse these adjustments to Council.
If the application is denied, the organisation will be contacted in writing explaining the reason(s) for the denial.
