This page gives information about how shack sites can be assessed for the emergency services levy.
Emergency services levy assessments for shack sites
Owners of privately leased shack sites can request individual emergency services levy assessments for each lessee.
To request individual emergency services levy assessments for each lessee:
- The land owner or association must submit a request in writing covering the entire shack site group to RevData@sa.gov.au.
- You will need to provide your ownership number.
If the request is approved:
- all lessees within a shack site group will receive separate assessment
- a single assessment method will apply to all lessees in the group - custom arrangements for individual lessees are not available.
Requests for only part of a group or from individual lessees will not be accepted.
Lessees who wish to change how the levy is assessed for their shack site are encouraged to discuss the matter with the land owner or association.
