Hi everyone,
Yesterday I found a Fact Sheet released by IPART when they set the 2.3% rate peg for 2018/19. It contains a proposal to bring forward the rate peg announcement to early September each year. Unfortunately the time to “have your say” has closed but it might still be worth having a read and sending your thoughts on the proposal.
Personally I think it will be helpful for us to know sooner.
The fact sheet can be found here: https://www.ipart.nsw.gov.au/files/sharedassets/website/shared-files/local-government-rate-setting-rate-peg-2017-18-to-2020-21/fact-sheet-rate-peg-for-nsw-councils-for-2018-19-november-2017.pdf
