Rating examples

*Summary rates includes GST but excludes Regional Council Rates

The table above provides examples of rates across a range of properties of differing value and category.

The values are based on the last rating revaluation which was completed in 2019.

Rates increases are across the board and are due largely to inflation increasing our costs. Insurance, maintenance projects, and Councillor remuneration are some of the areas seeing cost escalations above what was expected in the Long Term Plan. While the General Rate has increased the proportion each property pays under the Uniform Annual General Charge (UAGC) has not changed from what was set in the Long Term Plan.

The far right column shows the percentage movement across each property type. As cost increases are spread over most of council’s activities these rating increases are spread relatively evenly across all property types.
