GM8/19 - Adoption of Council's Delivery Program 2019-21 Including the Operational Plan 2019/20 (Incorporating the Budget, Rating Structure and Fees and Charges)

 

 

Additional information with NO CHANGE to Recommendation

 

Council’s draft Delivery Program 2019-21, including the Budget, Rating Structure and Fees and Charges for 2019/20, was adopted for public exhibition at the 10 April 2019 General Meeting. Since being placed on exhibition, a number of additional matters that were not known during the preparation of the original draft Budget were identified. Some of these matters required funding and this was proposed to be found from a range of sources – refer Budget section of Deputy General Manager’s Report No. GM8/19.

At an informal workshop held prior to the finalisation of Deputy General Manager’s Report No. GM8/19, it was proposed that $700k of unspent funds from the 2018/19 footpath improvement program be used as a source of part-funding in 2019/20 for the additional matters referred to above. Further issues were subsequently flagged for potential inclusion in future Budgets. 

Council officers wish to clarify that it remains Council’s objective to fully fund the footpath improvement program to the agreed levels outlined in the Long Term Financial Plan. For those unfunded projects, Council officers will identify alternative sources of funding for further consideration by Council as part of the 2019/20 September Quarterly Budget Review.
