Inspection of the Rating Information Database

Council’s Rating Information Database (RID), containing district-wide valuation details, property rating classifications and any current targeted rates the property may be liable for, is available for public viewing on our website with indicative rates for the 2025/2026 year.

You can view the database online at any time, or call into the Council’s Customer Service Centre, 36 Weld Street, Hokitika, to inspect the database during opening hours.

The purpose of the RID is to allow people to check what rate types and differentials have been applied to their account for a particular rating year. The figures displayed on the RID should not be used as confirmation of the actual rates charged / payable on a property, but are indicative of proposed future rates based on the Draft Long Term Plan 2025 – 2034.
