The Waterways and Drainage Charge funds a range of projects that benefit the entire region.
The charge is collected annually because it is more cost efficient for the community than collecting it quarterly.
Land that is exempt from the Parks Charge includes public primary and high schools; local council parks and other recreational lands; properties classified as ‘farm’ by your local council
Find a park, trail or other facility in your area that is funded by your Parks Charge contribution.
The price of water is determined through a process we undertake with the industry’s independent regulator, the Essential Services Commission (ESC).
The Parks Charge ensures that our parks and other facilities are maintained and staffed for the enjoyment of future generations of Victorian families.
