Consultation has concluded

Council decision/outcomes

Council considered the feedback provided by the community and adopted the Annual Business Plan and budget for 2021-2022 at its meeting on 29 June 2021.

The feedback received will also be used to inform the 2022-2023 Annual Business Plan and Budget.

Read the feedback received in the Draft Annual Business Plan 2021-2022 community engagement outcomes report

Changes made to the plan were related to the CWMS annual service charge for occupied properties serviced by the Council managed CWMS and not charged a SA Water sewer service charge. Council made the decision to reduce this charge from the originally $802 to $745 (meaning a $20 increase from the 2020-2021 charge).

Due to this change, the operating surplus reduced by $282,000, which resulted in the LED streetlighting capital project being reduced by this same amount to $262,000.

Background

The draft Annual Business Plan and Budget sets out our proposed projects, services and programs for the financial year and how we intend to fund them.

As part of the planning process, we invite the community to provide feedback on the draft plan for 2021-2022.

To fund this year's Annual Business Plan and Budget we have proposed a 2.7% rate increase, excluding any increases due to growth. This will provide $100.95 million in operating income.

In 2021-2022 we will continue to progress important projects by investing more than $24 million in community infrastructure, and will spend about $7.5 million on roads and footpaths. We have allocated a combined $3.1 million to building renewal and upgrades to ensure our existing buildings remain fit for purpose.

More information is available in the summary document and the draft Annual Business Plan 2021-2022, which include a list of proposed capital works.

To get involved and have your say:

Email and written submissions can also be provided - see the summary document for more details.

Note that as public meetings are still suspended due to COVID-19, a public meeting for the draft Annual Business Plan will not be held this year.

Copies of the draft plan, summary document, and hard copy feedback form are also available at the Council's Civic Centre, 571 Montague Road, Modbury.

Your feedback is appreciate by Friday, 18 June 2021. Following community engagement, Council will determine whether the direction and focus of this plan is appropriate, and to what extent the proposed initiatives and standards of service will be funded.
