DRAFT

PART 3Budgets2019/202020/21

129

A key financial strategy for Council is to strive to return a surplus each year based on 2% of untied revenue. In 2019/20 Council is budgeting for a surplus of $2.7m, which is 1.5% of revenue. Council will develop strategies in future years in order to meet the 2% target.

PROCESS FOR ESTABLISHING & UPDATING THE BUDGET FOR 2019/20Under the Local Government Act and related regulations and guidelines, an Operational Plan is required to be released for public exhibition and subsequent adoption by Council, in order to issue annual council rates notices to ratepayers by early August.

The budget has been based on the following information:• The priorities and objectives

adopted for the City of Parramatta through councils internal and external consultation process.

• The continuation of works to finalise the transition to the City of Parramatta funded through the State Governments $15m to invest into projects to benefit the community.

• The NSW Government’s rate protection commitment means residents of the City of Parramatta council will pay no more for their rates than they would have under their old council for the four years post proclamation starting May 2016.

BUDGET HEADLINESCouncil is budgeting for Operating Revenues of $274.1m with $187.4m coming from Rates & Annual Charges. Operating expenses are budgeted at $271.4m creating a surplus of $2.7m after the removals of one offs.

The budget provides funding for strategic priorities identified in the operational plan including a capital works program of $186.6m.

RESTRICTIONS ON REVENUELocal Government is restricted in its capacity to raise revenue to fund Community services.The primary source of revenue is rates and annual charges. In 2019/20 Council will derive 68% of total operating revenue from Ordinary rates, Special rates and Annual Charges.Full details of rates and special rates to apply in 2019/20 for each of the former council areas are outlined under rates and charges.

NSW GOVERNMENT FUNDINGThe NSW Government provided an additional $15 million (to be spent over 3 years) to invest in new or improved infrastructure and better services for the community through a community grant program and direct investment by Council in projects that deliver new or improved infrastructure or services to the community. In consultation with the community, funds were allocated to projects for the City of Parramatta in 2017/18 and will continue in 2019/20.

Financial FrameworkEnsuring Financial Sustainability underpins Council’s Financial Planning. Council aims to ensure its net operating position is in surplus through the prudent management of Councils finances, debt and insurance.

130 City of Parramatta DRAFT Delivery Program 2018-2021 & Operational Plan 2019-2020

STRATEGIC PROJECTSThe following strategic projects are included in this plan.

Parramatta Square DevelopmentCouncil is continuing to play a major role in the development of Parramatta Square. This is planned for substantial completion in 2022.

Wentworth Point Library and Community CentreThe construction of the new Wentworth Point Library and Community Centre is planned for delivery to the community December 2019. The new Library and Community Centre will occupy 3,200sqm of space on the northern side of Wentworth Point.

Parramatta Urban Amenity Improvement ProgramThe Department of Planning and Environment (DPE) is coordinating the Parramatta Urban Amenity Improvement Program (PRUAIP) following government endorsement in 2016. PRUAIP provides funding to Local Councils to develop open spaces and plazas, cycle paths, playing fields and streetscape improvements along the Parramatta Road Corridor. City of Parramatta has secured funding from 2019/20 through

2020/21 to complete various upgrades of parks and purchase of key buildings near Parramatta Road. The Deed of Arrangement stipulates that grant funds allocated to PRUAIP projects must be utilised by Council by June 2021. Design has started in 2019/20 with construction and land acquisition expected towards the end of 2020/21.

City River Program of WorksA high quality river foreshore is a major opportunity identified in Parramatta 2038 Community Strategic Plan for the Parramatta CBD and its transformation into a vibrant business and cultural hub and true centre for Western Sydney. Achieving this requires sustained and coordinated effort to deliver staged public domain improvements, to guide development by others, and integrate other City programs and strategies. The City River Program of Works will provide the framework for coordinated management of a suite of public domain projects and supporting activities. In the second year of the program, Escarpment Boardwalk will commence in 2019/20 and design of Charles Street Wharf in 2019/20.

Phillip Street Smart Street Stage 1The aim of this project is to implement Parramatta’s first

smart street in Phillip Street within the CBD. The project will deliver infrastructure needed to support technologies for a smart street and streetscape improvements that will help to form the wider Phillip Street vision of being the promenade that will link Parramatta Quay to the new stadium. Design is complete and capital works is expected in mid-2019.

STATE GOVERNMENT PROJECTS Involvement in State Government planning projects for the Western Sydney Light Rail Project, and the Museum of Applied Arts & Sciences will require a significant contribution of council resources during 2019/20 to ensure the right outcomes are achieved for the city.

WORKS PROGRAM

Capital Works $186.6m (including asset renewals)

The Capital Works Program is driven by the City of Parramatta Councils Asset Management Strategy. The objective of the Asset Management Strategy is to establish a framework to guide the planning, construction, maintenance and operation of infrastructure that is essential for the City to provide services to the community. In the 2019-20 financial year, the City will be spending $11.3m on roads, $6.2m on footpaths, kerb & guttering including accessibility improvements, $4.9m on parks and open spaces, $3.0m on buildings, $5.8m on drainage and $0.8m on bridges.

Asset Renewals $32.1m

One of Council’s key asset management objectives is to ensure that asset renewal expenditure within the capital program is sufficient to ensure that, as far as practical, the current condition of our assets is maintained. Asset renewal is capital expenditure that renews an existing assets by, returning the service potential, or the original life of the asset. Examples include, re-surfacing part of a road, renewing a section of a drainage network, or replacing the roof on a building. Capital renewal works restore existing service levels to capital assets.

BUDGET 2019/20 RATES & CHARGES

REVENUEPOLICY

PreambleThe NSW State Government proclaimed the formation of The City of Parramatta Council on 12 May 2016. The boundaries for the City of Parramatta council incorporate most of the former Parramatta LGA, with the exclusion of the Woodville Ward, along with parts of the Hills, Hornsby and Auburn council areas and a section of the Holroyd LGA. The NSW Government’s rate protection commitment means residents of the City of Parramatta council will pay no more for their rates than they would have under their old council for the four years post proclamation. To manage this commitment, rates will be segmented into the former council areas as outlined on the map contained on the following page. The map represents the area identified as PP 5002 as per the Proclamation on 12 May 2016. Details of the rates and charges for each rate structure identified in the map are outlined in the following pages.

153


RATING The total income that can be raised from levying rates on property is capped by the State Government based on a determination by the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART). IPART determined that general income from rates in 2019/20 may be increased by a maximum of:

• 2.7% for the former Parramatta City Council • 2.7% for the former Auburn Council • 2.7% for the former Hornsby Shire Council • 2.7% for the former Hills Shire Council • 2.7% for the former Holroyd Council

As indicated earlier, in accordance with the Proclamation, the current rating structure including category and subcategories of the former councils forming the City of Parramatta are to be maintained for 4 years’ post proclamation and therefore rate assessments will be based entirely upon property valuations (ad valorem) with minimum rates applying where appropriate. Rates for 2019/20 will be assessed on land values having a date of 1 July 2016 for all the former council areas. The increase allowed by IPART relates to general income in total and not to individual ratepayers’ rates. Individual rates are also affected by other factors such as land valuations. As such rates for individual ratepayers may vary by more or less than the percentage allowable depending on how an individual ratepayers’ land valuation has changed in a particular year compared to the land values of other ratepayers. The following tables provide details of five rating structure which incorporates former Parramatta, Auburn, Hornsby, Hills and Holroyd LGAs. This structure will be maintained until 30 June 2020.

ORDINARYRATES Rates are determined on the categorisation of land. Council’s ordinary rating structure consists of two categories: Residential and business rates. These categories in turn have subcategories determined by the location of the land as detailed in the tables on the following pages.

SPECIALRATES The Local Government Act 1993 provides that a council may make a special rate for or towards meeting the cost of any works, services, facilities or activities provided or undertaken, or to be provided or undertaken, by the Council within the whole or any part of the Council’s area. Special rates levied for infrastructure include maintenance and/or the operational phases of approved special rate projects not just the upfront capital expenditure. This ensures a prudent lifecycle approach to asset management is undertaken by council. PENSIONERREBATES

All NSW councils provide a mandatory rebate of up to $250 to eligible pensioners. The former Parramatta City Council is one of the few Councils that granted an additional voluntary rebate of up to $100 to eligible pensioners on top of the $250 State Government rebate. In 2019/20 this is to be extended to all eligible pensioner ratepayers within the City of Parramatta LGA. STORMWATERMANAGEMENTSERVICESANNUALCHARGE In accordance with the Local Government Amendment (Stormwater) Act 2005, all of the former councils introduced a Stormwater Management Charge. The Stormwater Management Charge is levied on all parcels of rateable urban land within the City of Parramatta categorised for rating purposes as Residential or Business (including all sub categories), not being vacant land or land owned by the Crown, or land held under lease for private purposes under the Housing Act 2001 or the Aboriginal Housing Act 1998. Council administers a comprehensive waterways management program. As the principal authority responsible for the management of stormwater, Council:

• Maintains over 400 km of stormwater discharge drainage pipes for stormwater conveyance;

• Implements essential flood mitigation measures to protect life, property and infrastructure;

• Conserves the natural waterways of the City;

• Protects bushland and other natural assets from the impacts of urban run-off by implementing purpose built pollution control traps and water retention systems.

The stormwater management services charge helps council fund these important programs. The following table provide details of the charges. Note that whilst Hornsby Shire Council do not charge a stormwater levy, they do charge a special rate for catchment remediation that funds similar programs.
