Do you know that there are a variety of options available to pay your land rates?
To support individuals and families, Lithgow Council offers a number of payment options.
Residents have the option to arrange a payment plan that suits their financial situation. This may involve weekly, fortnightly, monthly or quarterly instalments, providing greater flexibility, and avoiding larger lump sum payments.
The Council has also partnered with Lifeline Financial Counsellors to provide further assistance. This service assists people to discuss their specific circumstances and explore tailored solutions.
