City Rates: Following the informal meeting held recently by Stuart Moles to address concern by some residents about the increase in their 2014-15 City Rates and certain anomalies with their respective valuations we are continuing to make further enquiries and are seeking a meeting with the City on the matter. It is important to point out that your rates are your own concern and are not a Residents Committee or Village management issue. We are only pursuing this matter as courtesy to provide you with more information should you wish to appeal. In the meantime the attached FAQ on City rates will help you understand your rates better and on the back of your rate notice are instructions on how to appeal which you need to read carefully and as soon possible as deadlines apply. We will inform you of our findings at the earliest opportunity. For the FAQ on City rates please click HERE.
JP Service: Tracy Roberts who is the Mayor of the City of Wanneroo is also a JP and she has kindly offered Free Justice of the Peace services. This also includes a reminder of the fact that anyone can request from the City certificates and flowers for significant life celebrations. It might be particularly relevant to some residents as it would mean such celebrations as 50th and 60th wedding Anniversaries and 100th birthdays etc. could be marked in a special way.
