Brisbane residents are paying an average of 26 per cent more – after inflation – for their combined annual council rates and water utilities bills since the LNP took charge of Brisbane City Council’s budget in 2004, a
Brisbane Times analysis shows.
The largest portion of the jump – 15 per cent – has come since Queensland Urban Utilities took over water and sewerage charges from the council in 2010, driven largely by state bulk water fees.
Significant growth is set to take the number of properties paying Brisbane City Council rates to about 520,000 this financial year.
