How rates are calculated
… Learn about how we calculate your general rates and what other charges are included on your valuation and rates notice. Rates and valuations … How rates are calculated …

How we calculate your rates

Rates are our primary means of raising revenue to pay for all the services and infrastructure we provide to the Manningham community.

Each year:

  1. We work out how much rate revenue will be required to fund these services and infrastructure.

    This amount changes every year.

  2. We then divide this amount by the total value of all the properties within our municipality.

    This gives us the rate in the dollar amount – currently $0.00151560.

  3. The Capital Improved Value of each property is multiplied by the rate in the dollar amount.

    This is used to calculate the amount each property owner will pay.

For more information about what your rates help pay for, see our Rates Notice brochure.

The formula used for calculating General Rates

The term General Rates refers to the amount you are charged before any additional charges are applied.

The formula for calculating your General Rates is:

Capital Improved Value x Rate in the dollar = General Rates

For a property where the Capital Improved Value is $1,475,000 the calculations would be:

Capital Improved Value

$1,475,000
Rate in the dollar

$0.00151560
Calculation

$1,475,000 x $0.00151560 = $2,235.50

The Victorian Government's Local Government website has more information about how rates are calculated.

 

Other charges on your rates notice

In addition to the general rates levy, your rates notice will also include:

 

Why do rates vary between councils?

If you own property in another local government area and wonder why some rates are more or less than others, this is because each council has different budgetary requirements for:

  • capital works
  • proposed works
  • ongoing costs to maintain services in the local government area.

 

What is rate capping?

The State Government has capped rate increases at 2.75 per cent for 2024/2025. We have elected to apply this 2.75 per cent increase rather than seek an exemption from the cap. 

It is important to remember that the cap of 2.75 per cent applies to the overall rate revenue raised by the council and not each individual property.

Most properties will experience rate increases that are slightly lower or higher than 2.75 per cent. If your Valuation has either decreased or increased more than the average, it is likely you will see a rate increase lower or higher than 2.75 per cent.

Property valuation
… Find out how your property is valued and how to submit an objection if you believe the valuation is incorrect. Tags About Council Rates and valuations Apply … Property valuation …

The valuation process

All properties in Victoria are valued on 1 January each year.

Valuations are not done by councils. Valuations are completed by certified practising valuers on behalf of the Valuer-General Victoria (VGV). 

Valuations are then provided to councils to use for the calculation of rates. 

 

How valuers calculate property valuations

Valuers must return three valuations of each property which are:

  • Capital Improved Value (CIV).
  • Site Value, which relates to the market value of land only.
  • Net Annual Value, which is the current value of the property’s net annual rent. This is set at five per cent for residential properties, but could be higher for commercial assessments.

For more information about property valuations, please go to the Victorian Government's website.

How to lodge a valuation objection

If you believe that the valuation does not reflect market value of your property at 1 January of the relevant year, you may lodge an objection. 

    For more information about lodging an objection, please go to the Victorian Government's Rating valuation objections portal.

    1. Prepare your documentation

      Prior to lodging an objection, you will need to have a current annual valuation and rates notice or a supplementary valuation and rates notice. 

      • The annual valuation and rates notice is issued in August each year.
      • Supplementary valuation notices are issued during the year if there is a change to your valuation. 

      Your objection must be submitted within two months of the issue date of the valuation and rates notice.

      The issue date is located in the top right hand corner of your Rate Notice above the property ID

    2. Lodge an objection

      To make an objection:

      Please contact us if you require a hardcopy form.

    3. Continue to pay your instalment

      You will still need to pay your rate instalment.

      You are still required to pay the rate instalment/s by the due date/s, even if you have lodged a formal valuation objection. 

      If payment is not made by the due date/s, you will incur penalty interest charges.

    4. Amendments to the rate amount

      If there is an adjustment to the valuation, there will be an amendment to the rate amount and you will receive a refund if there is a credit.

    You can find out the statutory requirements and obligations within the Valuation of Land Act 1960 and the Valuation of Land Regulations 2014.
