What are infrastructure charges?
Infrastructure charges are made for the additional demand that each new connection puts on the overall capacity of the water supply and sewerage systems.
Will I receive an income offset payment as well as an infrastructure credit?
The income offset allowance is only made when an infrastructure charge is payable. For connections made on or after 1 April 2025, income offset will not apply.
