CLARENCE CITY COUNCIL – GOVERNANCE- 4 JUNE 2012 104 11.7 GOVERNANCE 11.7.1 ESTIMATES 2012/2013 (File No 10-02-04) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PURPOSE To consider the Estimates, incorporating the Capital Expenditure Programme, for the 2012/2013 financial year, together with an updated List of Fees and Charges. RELATION TO EXISTING POLICY/PLANS Consistent with Council’s adopted Strategic Plan 2010-2015. LEGISLATIVE REQUIREMENTS Council is required to adopt Estimates for each financial year. CONSULTATION No issues to be addressed. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The Estimates provide statutory authorisation for recurrent and capital expenditure for 2012/2013. Based on the draft estimates, the required increased rating effort to meet the proposed functional outcomes is 3.2% excluding the effects of carbon pricing and the State Government Fire Services Contribution. A further 0.7% has been allowed to meet additional costs imposed on Council as a result of legislated pricing of carbon emissions, giving a total increase in net rating requirement of 3.9%. RECOMMENDATION: A. That the Estimates for 2012/2013 as attached as Attachment 1 be adopted. B. That the Capital Expenditure Programme for 2012/2013 attached as Attachment 2 be adopted. C. That the new List of Fees and Charges attached as Attachment 3 be adopted. NB: An Absolute Majority is required for a decision on this matter. ________________________________________________________________________ ASSOCIATED REPORT 1. BACKGROUND 1.1. Draft Estimates, Capital Expenditure Programme and List of Fees and Charges for 2012/2013 have been prepared arising from a series of Council Workshops which considered a range of initiatives and issues likely to have an impact on the organisation in the coming year.
CLARENCE CITY COUNCIL – GOVERNANCE- 4 JUNE 2012 105 1.2. Council is required to adopt Estimates for each financial year. 2. REPORT IN DETAIL 2.1. The draft Estimates (refer Attachment 1) provide the high level financial framework within which Council will operate for the 2012/2013 financial year. They are presented on a programme basis and meet Council’s statutory obligations under the Local Government Act, 1993. The draft Estimates are consistent with the detailed programme budgets discussed by Council at its series of Workshops on the issue, with minor adjustments made as definite amounts (eg final rates growth) become known. 2.2. The draft Estimates require a net increase in rating income of 3.9% on 2011/2012 levels net of growth. Growth had been estimated at 2.1% during Council’s budget deliberations, however, final supplementary valuations received resulted in actual growth of 2.2%. This is a strong result when compared to the long term average (1.6% over 15 years). 2.3. The net increase excludes the effects of the State Government’s Fire Services Contribution, which had an increase of 1.4%. The relatively small movement in this levy has the effect of reducing the overall percentage rate increase (ie including Council’s requirements and the Fire Levy) so that the aggregate shift is 3.4%. It is this lower amount which will be reflected on rate notices, although clearly varying from property to property. 2.4. The increase in required total rating effort is above the March Consumer Price Index (Hobart) of 2.1%, against which Council rate movements are frequently compared. However, a range of issues needs to be taken into account in considering this comparison. Most significantly, the CPI is predominantly made up of goods and services which are irrelevant in considering Council’s cost structure. In particular, the low CPI figure was driven by a 30% reduction in fruit prices for the quarter.
