Continuing to prepare and build for the future

We, like every other NSW Council, are required to undertake long term financial planning with our community on services and facilities. This process is directed by the Integrated Planning and Reporting framework and is informed by plans for finances, assets and the workforce.

The delivery program sets out the work we will undertake over the next four years to address community priorities and needs as outlined in our Community Strategic Plan.

As part of delivery program, we prepare an annual budget that identifies our spending for the financial year. It includes expected income and expenditure for all planned services and infrastructure, as well as, ongoing maintenance and depreciation commitments.

Our Fees and Charges detail our proposed charges for services in 2021/22.

These documents were exhibited between Friday 30 April and Sunday 30 May 2021 and adopted with an amendment at the Council Meeting held Tuesday 15 June 2021.

The amendment relates to cafés and restaurants with outdoor dining on Council land. Those that are facing ongoing financial hardship due to COVID-19 can apply for a proportionate reduction in outdoor dining fees through deferral and/or waiver until 31 December 21
