Residential rates will rise again next financial year, but the scrapping of the health levy means tens of thousands of households are expected to pay less.
Despite the removal of the levy, which was dramatically decreased less than a week after it was announced at last year's budget, the ACT government will still collect about $607 million in residential rates from home owners next year, according to the latest budget papers.
That is up from the $565.7 million the government estimated it earned in the 2025-26 financial year.
