Subject: TRIM: LGOIMA request - rates by categories
I refer to your email of 20 July 2018 requesting rates under the categories listed in the table on page 104 of the Council agenda for 28 June, for the last and coming year.
As advised earlier, Council does not have a standard report in the finance system to provide the rates by category. I can, however, provide figures for the 2017/18 and 2018/19 years taken from the rates modelling software. Please note that these are not actual figures from the rating database.

| Rural Residential | $8,900,000 | $9,400,000 |
| $81,400,000 | $85,900,000 | |
