SUNSHINE Coast ratepayers have the chance to win up to $1000 off their next rates bill by signing up to receive future rate notices by email.
Sunshine Coast Council Outstanding Organisation Portfolio Councillor Ted Hungerford said ratepayers could put themselves in the running to win with just a few simple steps.
“Ratepayers who already receive their rates notices by email are automatically in the running to win,” Cr Hungerford said.
Ratepayers who still get their rate notices by traditional post can put themselves in the running by registering for a MyCouncil account or logging in to an existing account and changing their rate notice delivery method to email, before Wednesday, February 22.
You can create your own MyCouncil account on council’s website and once you’ve done that or logged into your existing account, all you need to do is click on ‘Update your rate notice delivery’ under the Property and Rates section on your MyCouncil dashboard, and change to email.
“Receiving rate notices by email rather than traditional post is more environmentally friendly and registering for a MyCouncil account enables residents to access a wide range of convenient and secure online options,” Cr Hungerford said. You’ll find a step-by-step guide to setting up your MyCouncil account on council’s website.
