$63M in capital works for Albury
AlburyCity’s Draft Budget for 2021/22 aims to drive economic and social recovery in the wake of COVID-19, with modest rates increases to help fuel a program of capital works across the city.
The Draft Budget will be placed on display for community feedback, following its endorsement by Councillors at their meeting on 26 April.
The budget totals $159M in expenditure and features capital works of $63M, which will include:
$11.8M for roads, bridges and footpaths
$10.3M for recreation projects
$6.5M to replace, improve or upgrade public buildings
The budget also proposes a rate rise of 2.3 per cent for the average household and an increase of 1.8 per cent for businesses. Waste management charges will return to pre-COVID-19 levels and no increase to water and sewer charges is proposed for 2021/22.
