Our tax increases – a brief reflection

Base budget increases + Operating Impact of Capital increases have stayed close to inflation.

2020 – 2022 increases are also projected to be around the current inflation.

15

Our tax increases – a brief reflection

Increases above inflation in the proposed 2020 –2022 budget relate to service level changes and increased investment in infrastructure.

Capital ClassificationThe Routine and Non–routine project classifications were introduced in 2015 and have provided significant efficiencies for both Council and staff, by allowing lower value and “business as usual” projects to proceed expeditiously.

Routine projects may proceed once the budget has been approved by Council, on February 10, 2020.

Non-routine projects return to Council after budget day with a formal report outlining the rationale and funding strategy. This provides Council additional oversight, and the opportunity to review and consider further project detail for these projects that are of high interest or financially material, before they move forward.
