Have your rates deducted from your account fortnightly, monthly, quarterly or annually. Contact Council to arrange regular payments or download the Direct Debit application form and service agreement information:
Having difficulties meeting your instalment payment? You can apply to pay rates weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
Ratepayers finding it difficult to pay their rates have the option of applying to Council for special consideration. If you meet the requirements, Council may defer a portion of your rates, consent to special payment arrangement, or waive interest charges.
Penalties for late payments will apply. Interest will accrue from the due date of the instalment and continue to accrue daily until the account is paid in full. The penalty interest rate is 10% per annum which is set by the Victorian Government.
