Financial planning

Turning Council priorities into a funded program

Each year Council adopts a budget that sets out how the Shire intends to fund its operations and deliver services, projects and capital works during the financial year.

The budget brings together Council priorities, anticipated revenue, operating costs, capital investment and other financial commitments into one annual financial plan.

The budget includes
Operating revenue & expenditure
Capital works & projects
Rates & other income
Grants & contributions
Reserves & financing
Shire services & programs
From planning to delivery

Integrated planning

One year within a longer plan

While the annual budget focuses on a single financial year, Council decisions are made within a much longer planning horizon.

The budget works alongside the Shire's strategic, corporate, financial and asset planning to help balance current priorities with future commitments and the long-term sustainability of Shire services.
