Message from the Mayor
Welcome to 2024! I trust you had the chance to enjoy some time with family and friends over the Christmas and New Year period. It's exciting to now have the 52nd Toyota Country Music Festival Tamworth underway. The 10 days brings such a great atmosphere to our region - as well as bringing a major economic boost as a result of the business and visitor activity it generates.

Pensioner rebates part of Special Rate Variation
As part of our ongoing conversation about the Special Rate Variation proposal, we wanted to share more information about our pensioner rebates and hardship policies which were on public exhibition in December and January. These policies were reviewed in response to feedback received during the community consultation period, recognising the need for adequate financial assistance options for those ratepayers who may be facing genuine hardship.
