NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT the County Rate has been duly made on the property rateable thereto in the County of Wexford.

The Annual Rate on Valuation for the ordinary expenditure of Wexford County Council for the services of the financial year from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2019 is Seventy Three Euro and Sixty Seven Cent (€73.67).

The Rate Book is now in my custody and may be inspected by any person affected thereby at the Rates Section, Block D, Wexford County Council, County Hall, Carricklawn, Wexford, between the hours of 10.00 am and 4.00 pm exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays.  The said rate will be payable from and after publication of this notice.

Under Section 7(1) of the Local Government (Financial Provisions) Act, 1978, any person who is aggrieved at the failure of a rating authority to make him an allowance under that Act, or who believes that he is entitled to a different allowance to that made to him, may within two months of the date of making the rate, request the rating authority in writing to grant him the appropriate allowance.  Where a request is not complied with within 28 days, the person may, within four months of the date of making the rate, apply to the District Court to have the appropriate allowance made.

The above rate was made on the 23rd day of January 2019.  Any request in respect of it under Section 7(1) of the Local Government (Financial Provisions) Act, 1978, must therefore be made to Wexford County Council not later than the 23rd day of March 2019.  Any application to the District Court under the same provision must be made not later than the 23rd day of May 2019.
