Rates calculation
To view the methodology Council uses to calculate rates refer to the Rates Newsletter (pdf).
Land valuations
Land use codes and valuations are determined by the Queensland Government Department of Natural Resources and Water. The Beenleigh Office is responsible for Logan City. If you have any queries regarding your land use code or valuation you may contact the Beenleigh office on 3884 8035.
Land Use Categorisation
General rates are calculated using the Unimproved Capital Value (UCV) in conjunction with Land Use categories, both of which are provided by the Department of Natural Resources and Water. To mitigate the impact of substantial changes in the UCV, the rateable value of property in Logan is calculated by averaging the UCV over three years.
To view the Land Use Code Categories refer to the Rate Newsletter (pdf).
Objection Against Categorisation
If you are unsure about the land use category assigned to you, then contact Council within 30 days from the date of issue on your rates notice (before the due date).
