In a press release issued on Friday, City Hall’s Public Relations Officer Debra Lewis advised all property owners that the council has agreed to offer the full amnesty on Tuesday, August 21st.

“The Council is encouraging rate-payers who have outstanding rates from the previous years to utilise this facility,” Lewis added.
