Local councils that are seeking to increase minimum rate levels above the statutory limit need to submit minimum rate applications to IPART for review and assessment. Councils should contact IPART to discuss their application as early as possible in the process.
Minimum Rate (MR) Increase applications should be submitted through IPART's Council Portal. Councils will need to register for access to the Council Portal . We have prepared User Guides to assist councils to register, navigate and submit applications through the portal.
Information about MR increases, including application forms and guidance can be accessed here.
See past minimum rate increase applications and determinations.
