    What category does a nonprofit community sports club eg bowling club come under

    Tony Mik asked 12 months ago

    Hello Tony, 

    Whilst there are occasionally some differences in the rating treatment of community sporting clubs given that rates are based on their specific land use, land held by non-profit community sports clubs such as bowling or tennis clubs are normally exempt from general rates under the Recreation Grounds Rates and Taxes Exemption Act 1981 ie they are not charged rates.  

    Where a community club is not exempt under the Recreation Grounds Rates and Taxes Exemption Act 1981 and therefore is rateable they would normally fall under the “Other” Land Use Category.  As such under Council’s Change in Rating Structure proposal, they fall under a land use category which it is expected to increase in the order of 6.9% similar to residential and primary production properties with a lower rate increase than otherwise would have occurred with no differential rate changes.  

    Separately where a community sporting club’s property is within Community Wastewater Management Systems (CWMS) area of Council, a service charge for those properties is imposed.  As Council’s CWMS service charges are set to recover the cost to the council of establishing, operating, maintaining, improving and replacing infrastructure no rebates are provided by Council for non-rateable properties ie they receive the same charge as rateable properties.  It is anticipated that is likely to be no increase in the CWMS service charges for the 2023-24 financial year.

    We hope this helps answer your question but please be in touch if you need further information. 

    Kind regards

    Sarah
