SUPPORTING the community\u2019s recovery from the coronavirus pandemic – to the tune of $562 million over 12 months – is the focus behind the City of Greater Geelong council\u2019s proposed 2020\/21 budget.
\nThe draft budget unveiled on April 28 will see heavy investment in capital works, infrastructure and programs designed to reboot the region\u2019s economy.
\nGeelong mayor Stephanie Asher said despite the option to delay the budget\u2019s release, budget deliberations were \u201cwell advanced\u201d prior to restrictions, meaning council could release the draft and \u201cprovide some certainty in a difficult time\u201d.
\n\u201cThis budget demonstrates the council\u2019s commitment to directing investment toward the programs and services which will help our region to recover in the aftermath of this global emergency.\u201d
\n\u201cIt reaffirms that our biggest priority is our community\u2019s long-term health and assisting those in need.
\n\u201cA key focus is also on maintaining our commitment to a significant capital works program ($161.2 million on infrastructure investment and support programs).
\n\u201cThis will be crucial in helping to keep people employed, allow services and activities to best return to normal and improve access to essential services for our community.\u201d
\nTo fund the capital program, the city plans to borrow $66.9 million (including $7.3 million deferred borrowings from prior years), with $138.6 million the total amount in borrowings as of June 30, 2021.
\nProjects that started during 2019\/20 with further funding proposed in the draft budget include: civic accommodation $51.4 million, digital modernisation project $6.6 million, Elcho drain construction $3 million, the redevelopment of Western Oval Pavilion $4.3 million and the LED street lighting program.
\nA $4 million community grants program, in conjunction with council\u2019s initial $4.9 million COVID-19 support package, will seek to provide further direct assistance to those in need.
\nThe economic impacts of the coronavirus are forecast to cost the city a total of $15.3 million in support packages, associated costs and lost revenue by the end of 2020\/21.
\nThe city\u2019s finance portfolio chair Cr Anthony Aitken said while the council originally planned to deliver a break-even budget in 2020\/21, there would now be an $8 million deficit.
\n\u201cNone of us anticipated the unexpected challenges that the COVID-19 pandemic has imposed on us, our council budget included.
\n\u201cThe proposed 2020\/21 council budget is fair and financially sustainable; it is mindful of those who need assistance and focuses on recovery measures to support our economy in Geelong when other businesses cannot.\u201d
\nThe council has removed the flat municipal charge on all properties, and included an average residential rate rise of 1.9 per cent \u2013 under the state government\u2019s 2 per cent cap.
\nAn increase of $24.59 on average rate bills (bringing the average rates spend to $1,310.21) will absorb the charge, with ratepayers of higher value properties to pay more than those who with lower value properties, according to the report.
\nA significant financial hardship policy has been created to provide residents experiencing financial difficulties as a result of the pandemic, the ability to waiver on fees, charges and interest on all debts and\/or put their rates payments on hold.
\nThe city announced on April 29 that as part of the city\u2019s 2019\/20 budget, businesses will receive a $556,000 boost during the pandemic and council rates will be waived from April 1 to June 20 of this year for the estimated 130 Greater Geelong businesses which have been required by state government restrictions to close.
\nThe council has also endorsed a total of $283,907 in financial support to the 1,482 local businesses who pay the Central Geelong Special Rate, which will cover a quarter of the annual special rate.
\nIn the report, city chief executive Martin Cutter and mayor Stephanie Asher reiterated this was a \u201cbaseline budget\u201d which may be updated as the \u201cfull extent\u201d of the impacts of the pandemic became clearer.
\nThe proposed budget can be viewed online at yoursay.geelongaustralia.com.au<\/a>, a hard copy is available upon request and submissions are invited and will be received until May 26.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
