Late penalty
“The Dog registration and complaints webpage states in prose: 'A 50% penalty fee will apply for payments not made by the due date of 31 July.' Its own fee table separately reads 'Discounted fee (applies if paid on or before 3 August)' / 'Full fee (applies if paid after 3 August)'. The council's formally adopted Fees and Charges schedule PDF (a two-year comparison table headed 'Charges 1 July 2025' / 'Charges 1 July 2026', confirming 2026-27 as the current year) states the identical fee categories and dollar figures but gives the cutoff as 'Discounted fee (applies if paid on or before 1 August)' / 'Full fee (applies if paid after 1 August)' instead - a genuine three-way same-topic conflict (31 July / 1 August / 3 August) across the council's own pages.”, Ōpōtiki District Council's own wording.
A late penalty applies from 2 August 2026.
