Introduction

Message from the Mayor and General Manager

We are pleased to present our Operational Plan for 2019-20 which outlines the projects, initiatives and services that will be delivered in 2019-20. Furthermore, we are pleased to present a responsible budget that includes one of the most extensive capital works program attempted to date. Our communities will see some significant projects undertaken in 2019 -20, with an emphasis on roads, bridges and recreation services. The projects are spread across our communities and have been bolstered by the additional funding obtained under the Stronger Communities, Stronger Country Communities and Regional Growth Funds. Whilst our Council continues to move forward with the integration of our services following the council amalgamation, significant progress has been made on increasing internal efficiencies and standardising service delivery across the Council. This progress will continue in 2020-21, so that our residents continue to enjoy high standards of services. The Operational Plan demonstrates a responsible approach to Council’s budget management and Integrated Planning. The one year operating plan is designed to ensure that the Council lives within its means and is held accountable for the expected outcomes. We look forward to working in partnership with the community to build a successful and sustainable future for the Murray River Council community.

Statement of Revenue Policy

Rates and Annual Charges

In developing the budget, rates and charges are an important source of revenue, accounting for 36.27% of the total revenue received by Council annually. Planning for future rate increases has therefore been an important component of the budget and Financial Strategic Planning process.

Rating Structure

Council has established a rating structure which is comprised of two key elements. These are:

• Property values, which try to reflect capacity to pay; and • User pays component to reflect usage of services provided by Council.

Striking a proper balance between these elements provides equity in the distribution of the rate burden across residents.

There are two types of rates that Council utilises:

• Ordinary Rates – these are levied on all rateable properties and contribute to providing all the services that are funded out of the General Fund;

• Special Rates – these are rates that are levied on specific parcels of land that enjoy a specific benefit as a result of particular goods or services that are supplied by Council.

Council makes a further distinction under the Ordinary Rates based on the purpose for which the property is used, that is, whether the property is used for farmland, residential or business purposes. This distinction reflects that each category of rates represents a different type of customer that draws on council services differently and has a different capacity to pay.

Council utilizes the Unimproved Capital Value (UCV) of the land for rating purposes provided by the Valuer General. The structure of the Council’s rates is based on an Ad Valorem Rate multiplied by the UCV. This becomes the rate, provided the amount is above the set minimum rate.

Ordinary Rates

Council has increased ordinary rates by the rate peg limit of 2.70% and increased water supply, waste management and sewerage service annual charges by 2.70% for 2019/2020. Waste management charges have increased by a greater amount due to changes in the international recycling market. The ordinary rating structures, categories and sub categories for the former two councils have been maintained as part of the government’s committed four-year rate path freeze for merging councils in accordance with the proclamation.

Annual Charges

Section 496A Stormwater Management Services Charges

Council proposes to continue to levy an annual charge for the provision of stormwater management services charges. The proposed charge will be levied on eligible assessments within the defined area. A copy of the defined area map can be view or supplied from Council’s office on request.

Proposed income will be spent on the identified projects in the budget.

Borrowings

Council finances some capital expenditures through borrowings. Generally, these are for expenditures on major infrastructure projects. Borrowing the funds allows the cost of these projects to be spread Over a number of years in order to facilitate inter-generational equity for these long-lived assets. Borrowings can also be used to smooth out long term expenditure peaks and troughs. In addition to external loans, the Council has one internal loan for drainage that will pay out in 2028. Council has determined to finance part of its extensive capital works program through additional borrowings amounting to $2.7 million.
