Rating Advisory Committee Endorsed

Cassowary Coast Regional Council endorsed the membership of the Rating Advisory Committee at the June 2023 Local Government Meeting.

The Committee is established for the purpose of providing feedback and recommendations on Council’s current General Rates and Special Levies structure in advance of developing the 2024/25 Annual Budget. Twelve community members were shortlisted and recommended to Council based on the selection criteria within the expression of interest application.

Preference was given to those residents who represent local organisations/interest groups/community groups and whose skills and experience will, in Council's opinion, achieve the objectives outlined in the Rating Advisory Committee Terms of Reference.

Every effort was made to ensure the shortlisted candidates reflect the diversity of the Cassowary Coast community based on the responses to the selection criteria.

Council sincerely thanks and acknowledges all applications and looks forward to working with the Rating Advisory Committee to build a platform for ratepayers and community members to provide feedback and recommendations pertaining to Council’s General Rates and Special Levies structure.
