Gosford Council's Early Ratepayers Reward Promotion, which encouraged ratepayers to pay their rates in full by August 31, was drawn on Tuesday, September 6, with one winner from the Peninsula.

E Zwart of Umina Beach won home insulation and ventilation to the value of $2000 donated by Four Seasons Home Insulation.

The other three winners were from Holgate, Mosman and Narrabundah.

This year, 8424 ratepayers paid their annual rates in full by August 31, with payments totalling over $12 million.

This represented 12.2 per cent of the notices issued, which increased intake by $610,034 more than last year.

Ratepayers who paid the total rates and charges by August 31 were automatically entered into the draw.
