Remission of certain targeted rates
There are various types of property that may be eligible for rates relief. These pages provide information about the criteria that must be met. You may also be able to apply for remission of penalties imposed on your rates account.
Only the person entered as the ratepayer, or their authorised agent, may make an application for rates remission. We will consider, on a case by case basis, all applications received that meet the criteria described in these pages.
Any approved remission will apply from the beginning of the next rating year.
The application forms for rates remission are available from customer service agencies. Applications for remission of penalties can be made over the phone.

We have no specific policy for the remission of rates on Maori freehold land. There may be other applicable Council rates remission policies. For more information, contact us.
