Look out for your Bay of Plenty Regional Council rates invoice

The team from Bay of Plenty Regional Council

If you live in and around Tauranga and pay rates, look out for your annual Bay of Plenty Regional Council rates invoice which is being sent out either by post later this week.

Payment is due on 20 October and there are plenty of ways to pay including by direct debit which allows you to spread out the cost over the full rating year until June 2023.

Go to our website to find out more about the changes and how your rates help fund the work that we do.
