The Council has adopted the valuations made by the Valuer-General as provided to the Council for 2023-24. If a ratepayer is dissatisfied with the valuation made by the Valuer-General then the ratepayer may object to the Valuer-General.
You may object to the valuation referred to on the notice by writing served personally or by post on the Valuer-General within 60 days after the date of service of the notice.
BUT NOTE:
(a) if you have previously received a notice or notices under the Local Government Act 1999 referring to the valuation and informing you of a 60-day objection period, the objection period is 60 days after service of the first such notice;
(b) you may not object to the valuation if the Valuer-General has already considered an objection by you to that valuation.
The Valuer-General may extend the 60-day objection period where it be shown there is reasonable cause to do so by a person entitled to make an objection to a valuation.
A written objection to valuation must set out the full and detailed grounds for objection, including any supporting information.
Objections can be submitted to the Office of the Valuer-General via:

Objection to Land Use
Regional Landscape Levies imposed by the South Australian Government are based on various Land Use Categories. Should you have any reason to believe that the Land Use Category applied to your account is incorrect, you may lodge a written objection with Council outlining the grounds upon which your objection is based. Objections must be submitted to Council within 60 days of the issue of your first notice.
Rates are still due and payable by the due date even if an objection has been lodged.
