Hi Sandra I don't remember if I replied to you or not, but I kept your email, so perhaps not. For the information regarding old rate books write to Wellington Shire Council Princes Highway SALE 3850 They will then look up their old rate books for you. Hoping this helps and if I can be of further assistance let me know. I live in Sale. warmest wishes Kate Yesterday is the past. Tomorrow is the future.
