Interest on rates

If you do not pay your rates by the due date, you may be charged interest. 

We can only waive the interest if we have made an error or under exceptional circumstances. Exceptional circumstances include: 

  • Compassionate grounds – ratepayers may have interest waived where they have demonstrated compassionate grounds for a payment being late. Acceptable compassionate grounds would generally relate to a family illness or death. 
  • Financial hardship – ratepayers may have interest or part interest waived where they have demonstrated that the payment of such interest would cause severe financial hardship.
