Council adopted the 2020/2021 Budget at its Ordinary Meeting of Council on Tuesday 18 August 2020.
The $45.9 million budget outlines the resources necessary to maintain and improve infrastructure, and deliver projects and services which are valued by our community. This year we incorporated a range of projects to specifically help respond to the impacts of coronavirus (COVID-19).
It also includes an investment of $11.74 million in capital works to upgrade and improvement vital infrastructure.
This year’s budget includes an increase to average rates income of 2% in line with rate cap set by the Victorian Government. Properties are now valued annually so some rates will increase by more and others less. The waste charge will rise by an average of 3% to maintain rubbish and recycling services at existing levels.
