Water Rates Notices

Some Water Notices that overlapped the end of the financial year had rates calculated at the 25/26 charge for usage that occurred in 24/25. This was a date error in the system that has been corrected. The average amount overcharged is $8.71. All affected properties have had a credit transaction applied. The credit is appearing in online accounts and will appear on your next notice.
