Rating exemption/concessions

Under the Local Government Act 2009 and its associated Regulation, land may be exempt from rating in certain circumstances.

This includes land used for:

  • religious
  • charitable
  • educational, or
  • other public purposes.

If your organisation serves a public good that benefits the wider community, you may be eligible for a rating exemption or concession.

How to apply

Please note the process for rate exemptions and concessions can be lengthy due to the necessary investigations and the potential need for a report to be presented to the Council. Your patience is appreciated while we determine if an exemption or concession should be applied.
