Council must serve the following rate notices by substituted service in accordance with section 239 of the Local Government Act 2009 as Council does not know, or is uncertain about, the current address of the person named in each rate notice listed below.

If any rates or charges remain overdue for at least three years on a property listed – or for one year if judgement has been obtained for vacant land or land used solely for commercial purposes – the property may be eligible for sale due to rate arrears.  This could result in the property being sold at public auction.
