From Monday, we’re asking you to give us your thoughts on some tough choices to help keep rates affordable for 2026/27.
Rates will still increase, but our proposals would lower the average rates increase to 3.77%.
To do that, we’re putting several trade-offs on the table. There are four key proposals we’d like your feedback on:
• reducing mowing and garden maintenance
• changing opening hours at some Refuse and Recycling Transfer Stations
• increasing fees and introducing new charges
• reducing selected rates remissions.
We know these aren’t easy choices, and each one has an impact. That’s why it’s so important we hear from you.
Feedback opens Monday 30 March and runs through to Tuesday 28 April.
We’ll be sharing more information soon, along with plenty of opportunities to come and have a chat with us in your community.
