User Fees and Charges 2026/27
Every year, we review the user fees and charges for our services to make sure they're fair, reasonable, and reflect what it costs to deliver them.
As part of the 2026/27 review, Council is proposing changes to fees across a range of services to respond to inflation, changing costs, and long-term financial sustainability.
Community consultation opens Wednesday, 22 April and closes Friday, 22 May 2026.

These fees and charges are effective from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026.
User fees and charges are used to assist the operation and maintenance of a variety of services provided to the community. User fee revenue reduces the rate revenue required to be collected from ratepayers.
Council wants to minimise rate increases wherever possible and has indicated that it will continue to review all user fees and charges on an ongoing basis.
Under section 12 of the Local Government Act 2002, reasonable costs incurred may be charged based on the hourly rate of staff involved.
All fees are GST inclusive, unless otherwise stated.
