To ensure our property records are accurate and up to date, you must tell us of any change of name, address or ownership as soon as possible.
When ownership of a property changes, the liability for payment of rates remains with the owner until a notice of acquisition is received.
Council must be notified in writing.
Failure to submit a notice within one month of a transfer may result in a substantial penalty.
