Rates keep our towns moving
Rates invoices will be sent to all ratepayers (who have not already paid the year’s rates in full) from 1 May.
We know the Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on many families in our district, but rates are important to keep our district running smoothly – like ensuring households have safe drinking water, wastewater is taken away, rubbish is collected, cemeteries are available, and Civil Defence are on hand.
You can find information on payment options at www.mpdc.govt.nz/rates/payment-options.
If you are struggling or already know that you aren’t going to be able to pay your rates, please call us on 0800 746 467 to discuss options.

You can help grow the Waikato Community Rugby Fund
Waikato Rugby celebrated 100 years of service to the community in 2021, but due to the pandemic the long-planned celebrations were not held until late 2022.
A highlight was a black-tie event at GloBox Arena at Claudelands where over 300 people enjoyed a wonderful night of reminiscence, remembrance, reconnection and reflection on what our national game means to the Waikato.
Many people put a lot of work into making the evening a massive success by all sorts of measures. One was fundraising $21,000 for the good of the game through auctions and donations, which has recently been transferred to the Waikato Community Rugby Fund at Momentum Waikato.
The Fund grows in perpetuity, with distributed returns only used for the benefit of the amateur community rugby, forever.
Donations to the Waikato Community Rugby Fund are always most welcome, to find out more and donate click the button below.
