Council releases balanced Proposed Budget 2021-22
An historically low rate rise and major community infrastructure investments are at the centre of the Council’s Proposed Budget.
Council tonight released the Proposed Budget 2021-22 which balances fiscal responsibility, policies and funding to support individuals, business and sectors hit hard by COVID-19, with a strategic plan and investment to meet population growth demands across the region.
The Proposed Budget freezes many fees and charges at pre-pandemic levels in 2021-22 and allocates $379 million over two years to deliver the region’s largest ever capital works program.
It commits $687 million over four years in investment for community facilities such as shared trails, aquatic and sporting facilities, community centres and public open space.
