New rates information is being delivered to residents throughout July and August. The Rates Brochure 2008 outlines how the council will allocate its revenue from rates and other sources over the coming year.

The collection of residential and commercial rates is the City of Port Phillip's primary means of raising revenue. Income generated from rates helps us deliver a vast range of services, facilities and infrastructure for the Port Phillip community.
