Sale of Land for Overdue Rates and Charges
The Local Government Act 2009 and Local Government Regulation 2012 allows councils to take action that may result in the sale of land in order to recover overdue rates or charges. This is an action that Council prefers to avoid and every effort is made to recover overdue rates or charges prior to commencing.
