What is the Rate Information Database (RID)?
The rates database holds the information we use to set and assess rates. It is a record of every property in the region. Each property is also known as a "rating unit".
Who can see the RID?
You can search this data online at any time. To view the full RID, which includes name and address details, please visit our offices during business hours. Bulk collection of names and addresses is not allowed.
I don't want my name and address showing on your Rate Information Database (RID)
We can send you a name suppression form to complete so we can remove your details. You can also download a copy of the suppression form. This suppression needs to be applied for each year. Please note that no names or postal addresses show in the rates search tool on our website.
