Council Fees and Charges

Fees and charges can be updated throughout the financial year and therefore should be reviewed periodically.

Fees and Charges for the 2025/26 financial year were endorsed by Council on Monday 23 June 2025.

The basis for increases in fees and charges in 2025/26 is determined by the following categories:

Statutory Charges
Where charges are made in accordance with legislation requirements, such charges have been adjusted in accordance with any legislative changes at the time but may be subject to further changes.

Fees under the control of Council
Various fees will have been increased by different amounts based on specific cost pressure or market forces or may have been subject to recent Council policy decision.

In some cases, fees are subsidised or discounted from normal commercial rates in order to achieve social / community objectives or provide specific benefit to residents.
