A rates remission is a reduction in the amount of rates you owe, or waiving the collection of rates altogether. The Regional Council adopts the policies which set out the criteria around its remissions every year.
Your property may be eligible for a reduction in its rates (a remission) if it meets the criteria set out in these policies – which usually focus on helping the Regional Council achieve its outcomes.
