Greater Wellington Regional Council
|
The Upper Hutt City Council collects rates on behalf of the Greater
Wellington Regional Council (Greater Wellington). These rates are set
and levied by Greater Wellington. Such combined collection arrangements
are more cost efficient and convenient for ratepayers.
You will receive a separate assessment notice for both the Upper Hutt
City Council and Greater Wellington at the start of each rating year. A
combined rates invoice will be sent for each instalment showing the
amount due for both the Upper Hutt City Council and Greater Wellington.
Each invoice will clearly show where and when payment is due.
Further information can be found on Greater Wellington's website (www.gw.govt.nz), including the 10-Year Plan (select the "Plans and Publications" link).
