PLANNING & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 16 September 2014
Bpay continues to be the most popular payment options, accounting for 51.1% of all money
received, followed by Australia Post (including over the counter at Post Offices and
automated phone payments) at 21.7%. Payments made at the Council office (including
payments received by mail) accounted for 14%, followed by online payments at 7.6% and
direct debit payments at 5.6%.
6. Arrangements to Pay
There are currently 470 properties that have made an arrangement to pay their current rates
in accordance with section 2.5.2 of the Revenue Statement, representing $285k of the
outstanding rates and charges. The number of arrangements is likely to increase after
property owners receive their reminder notices.
7. Reminder Notices
Reminder notices will be issued mid-September to all property owners who have an
outstanding balance greater than $25.00 who have not previously made an arrangement
with Council. Based on current balances in the property and rating system approximately
3,200 notices, totalling $5.8 million of outstanding rates, will be issued.
Previous Council Consideration
Nil
Finance & Risk
There are no properties where the outstanding rates and charges are close of the rateable
value of the land; consequently there is currently no risk of any rates and charges requiring
to be written off as a bad debt.
