Overview
This workshop will discuss the mechanism by which council can recover outstanding rates with a particular focus on the statutory scheme under the Local Government Act 1999 which enables a council to sell land where rates on the land have been in arrears for three years or more. It will include discussion on how a council may recover outstanding rates, the persons against whom the council may recover outstanding rates and how the council is required to apply payments received by way of rates.
Participants will also be involved in preparing a template notice under section 184 that complies with the requirements of the Act.
