Emailing of Rates Notices and Water & Sewerage Charge Notices

Rates and Water Notices can now be accessed online for notices issued in October 2019 onwards. Please visit uralla.enotices.com.au and register using the unique eNotices reference number which appears on your notice. You are encouraged to opt-in for notices to be emailed as this will reduce postage costs for Council and is better for the environment. You can still access notices online for misplaced notices even if you prefer to receive notices by post.
