ANZAC DAY

A number of ANZAC Day services will occur across the region. Dawn services will be held from 5:45am in Victoria Park and Cameron Park in Dubbo and Wellington. They will both be followed by marches and mid-morning services. There will also be commemorations in Stuart Town, Mumbil, Eumungerie, Gollan and Geurie. Times and locations are on DRC’S website or by calling (02) 6801 4000.

RATES CALCULATOR

Residents will start receiving their rates notices soon, if they haven’t already, and there is a flyer which aims to explain the rates harmonisation process in more depth. To help residents understand what will happen to their rates, a calculator is being developed on the website, so make sure you keep your Assessment Number on your notice, as this will help when the calculator is active.

MYDRC WATER

The MYDRC Water portal is now active and ready for residents to use, if they have had their smart water meter installed. The MYDRC Water platform allows residents to accurately track their water usage, and determine whether they might have a leak at their property. Find more information on DRC’S website.
