This Budget Report has been prepared with reference to The Institute of Chartered Accountants “Victorian City Council Model Budget 2013/2014” a best practice guide for reporting local government budgets in Victoria.
Mayor’s introduction In preparing this Budget great consideration has been taken to ensure the ongoing longevity of our great city. Council has undertaken a significant consultation and engagement process which has influenced our decisions around the Draft Budget. We were delighted with the number of people who responded (over 1,200 people) and the quality of comments and ideas that we received from residents, businesses and community groups and community organisations. Many competing demands and pressures affect our ability to continue to provide the services and infrastructure at the standards expected by our community. Council will increase rates by 7.95 per cent and collect a municipal charge which has increased by $69.67per assessment. In the 2013/14 financial year this will raise total revenue of $79.21 million. This enables Council to maintain existing service levels, fund a number of important new initiatives and continue to allocate appropriate funding to maintain and renew the City’s valuable infrastructure assets. The rate increase needs to be understood in the context of a number of significant budget initiatives that cover the breadth of the municipality and all service areas. The total Capital Works program will be $65.57 million for 2013/2014 including: $5.091M

In addition to these initiatives Council is in the process of negotiating with the State Government to secure three disused school sites in Bellfield and Heidelberg Heights. This project coupled with the borrowings for the Ivanhoe Aquatic centre redevelopment and some smaller land acquisitions will temporarily increase our loan borrowings by $30.07M. Banyule is focussed on retaining the important community facilities on the Banksia School site. Council intends to leverage the residential development opportunities associated with the residual sites whilst achieving the retention of improved community facilities. Over an extended period, Council has absorbed significant cost shifts from other levels of Government in a manner that cannot be financially sustained. Council continues to advocate on behalf of the community to reduce this impost. Council continues to seek innovative funding sources to offset its reliance on rate revenues. We continue to be mindful of operating in the most efficient and effective manner possible and we understand the shared financial pressure that both Council and our community faces. As can be seen by this budget Council is focusing on delivering a range of important works and services to its community. This ambitious program returns Banyule to its rightful place as an innovative, responsive and sustainable place to live.

Banyule City Council Budget – 2013/2014

Chief Executive Officer’s Report Welcome to Council’s Budget Report 2013-2014. This report responded to what you have told us you see as priorities for Banyule. The City Plan sets a clear strategic direction for Council and will ensure we continue to deliver the right services in response to the community’s expressed needs. The Budget will ensure Council’s finances are sustainable. The majority of the previous Council have returned to serve the Banyule community for the next four-years. We are very fortunate to have a mix of both experienced and new ideas as a guiding base for Council operations. This provides a great opportunity to build on the good work already done and offers new opportunities for Council’s future and how it might deliver to its community. In the 2012 State wide Local Government Community Satisfaction Survey, 75% of our community confirmed that Banyule Council was heading in the right direction, with our overall performance significantly higher when compared to most other local Councils across the State. Notable areas where you rated us highly were waste management, town planning policy, planning and building permits, local laws and environmental sustainability. You also told us that you remained concerned about how we communicate with you, parking and traffic, your neighbourhood character being under threat and indicated you wanted improved local streets and footpaths. You also said that our local environment, festivals, events and leisure facilities were important to you. In response to improved communication, I was pleased to see the Banyule community participate in our community consultation program leading up to this City Plan and Budget. In fact, the response was high and the issues identified far ranging. Council received feedback confirming the continued need to invest in aging infrastructure and maintaining the quality services provided. The Budget for 2013/2014 and the Budgeted Standard Statements for years 2013/2014 to 2016/2017 continue to highlight Council’s strong financial position. The operating results for 2012/2013 and 2013/2014 to 2016/2017, indicate an improving surplus which will increase Council’s financial sustainability in the medium to long-term. Revenue increases over the next four-years, together with retention of expenditure, will result in more own source generated funds available for Capital Works. Increased revenue available for Capital Works will also ensure Council can bridge the funding asset renewal gap for high cost infrastructure assets in coming years. The budget shows that Council will increase its borrowings by $30.07 million in 2013/2014 to fund major projects. Total borrowings will peak at $60.6 million, however, a debt management strategy is in place to reduce the balance to $38.8 million in 2016/2017. Council is very mindful of the Victorian Auditor-General’s annual sustainability assessment ratios for underlying result, liquidity, indebtedness, self-financing, capital replacement and renewal gap.

Council’s analysis indicates a favourable position for overall sustainability and future trends based on the Budgeted Standard Statements. The Capital Works budget over the next four-years is challenging, financially significant and will stimulate economic activity, but also exciting for the Banyule Community. Council will continue to deliver outcomes on the ground, particularly in the areas of infrastructure renewal and targeted services that meet the needs and priorities of the Banyule community. In fact that a substantial component of the Council’s Strategic Budget emphasises the allocation of funds towards the renewal of roads, footpaths, drains and buildings that on average are aged 50-60 years. In the City Plan we have included our focus areas and a range of key initiatives. The Plan aims to balance the use of our resources in a way that means we continue to deliver our programs, activities and services, whilst providing a range of new initiatives that respond to the community expectations. The focus areas and initiatives are wide ranging and include:
Improving preschools infrastructure Maintaining and upgrading of roads, drains and footpaths Ensuring our natural environment and tree assets are appropriately maintained Responding to land use planning issues in consistent, fair and timely manner Delivering social and economic benefits for our community Producing quality community festivals and events across the municipality
Due to changes in legislation, funding shortfalls and changes in community demand, Council services continue to face financial pressures. Areas affected include home and community care, health service, maternal and child health and library services. Council continues to advocate to both State and Federal Governments in the areas of cost shifting and failures of grants to keep up with increasing operating costs to reduce the burden on ratepayers. Council continues to lobby both Governments for specific grants relating to sporting facilities, new infrastructure and service initiatives. Many issues that you see as important fall outside Council’s direct area of responsibility and these will be fed into the development of the next stage of our Community Plan. For example, transport and traffic congestion is an issue where Council will continue to work in partnership with local community groups, agencies and residents. We value our community and Council is committed to collaborating and working alongside the community to assist in the implementation of the City Plan. I look forward to continuing to achieving the objectives and key directions of the City Plan and delivery of the 2013/2014 Budget with our Councillors and staff.

Summary Council has prepared a Budget for the 2013/14 financial year which seeks to balance the demand for services and infrastructure with the community’s capacity to pay. Key budget information is provided below about the general rates (including municipal charge and supplementary rates) increase, operating result, service levels, cash and investments, Capital Works, financial position, financial sustainability and key strategic activities of the Council.

The expected operating result for the 2013/14 year is a surplus of $0.60 million, which is a decrease of $0.05 million over 2012/13.The underlying result, which excludes items such as capital grants and contributions is a deficit but improves to an underlying surplus by 2014/15 (year 3) due to the implementation of Council's rating strategy and service reviews to identify productivity improvements. The underlying surplus is budgeted to continue for the following two years 2015/16 and 2016/17.

The net cost of services delivered to the community for the 2013/14 year is expected to be $78.08 million which is an increase of $2.03 million over 2012/13. A key influencing factor in the development of the 2013/14 budget has been the recently released results of the community satisfaction survey conducted by Council. The survey results show that while there is a relatively high level of satisfaction with most services provided by Council, there are some areas of concern where there is a clear message that ratepayers want improved services. For the 2013/14 year, service levels have been maintained however a number of new activities and initiatives are proposed. 4. Cash and investments 50.00

The Capital Works assets program for the 2013/14 year is expected to be $59.25 million of which $11.42 million relates to projects which will be carried forward from the 2012/13 year. The carried forward component is fully funded from the 2012/13 budget. Of the $59.25 million of capital asset funding required, $7.01 million will come from Council operations, $3.08 million from external grants and contributions, $30.07 million from loans and $19.09 million from reserves and sale proceeds. The capital expenditure program has been set and prioritised based on a rigorous process of consultation that has enabled Council to assess needs and develop sound business cases for each project. The graph below sets out the required and actual asset renewal over the life of the current Strategic Resource Plan and the renewal backlog.
The asset renewal program has been increased to $17.10 million in the 2013/14 year where there is minimum backlog of expected projects. However over the rest of the four year period assets renewal program is expected to drop to $7.40 million in year 2016/17. The renewal backlog is when the funding available is less than what is required for renewal.

The financial position is expected to be stable with working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) to decrease by $1.66 million to $12.59 million in 2013/14. This is mainly due to the use of cash reserves to fund the Capital Works program. 7. Financial sustainability

A Strategic Resource Plan for the years 2013/14 to 2016/17 has been developed to assist Council in adopting a budget within a longer term prudent financial framework. The key objective of the Plan is financial sustainability in the medium to long term, while still achieving the Council’s strategic objectives as specified in the Council Plan. The Plan projects that Council's operating result remains in surplus for all four years, the underlying result, as shown on the above graph, which is a measure of financial sustainability, shows an increasing trend of surpluses from the 2014/15 year onwards. The improvement is due to increasing revenue being received during this period to fund a number of major Capital Works projects and in particular infrastructure renewal. .

Budget processes This section lists the budget processes to be undertaken in order to adopt the Budget in accordance with the Local Government Act 1989 (the Act) and Local Government (Finance and Reporting) Regulations 2004 (the Regulations). Under the Act, Council is required to prepare and adopt an annual budget for each financial year. The budget is required to include certain information about the rates and charges that Council intends to levy as well as a range of other information required by the Regulations which support the Act. The 2013/14 budget, which is included in this report, is for the year 1 July 2013 to 30 June 2014 and is prepared in accordance with the Act and Regulations. The budget includes standard statements being a budgeted Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement and Statement of Capital Works. These statements have been prepared for the year ended 30 June 2014 in accordance with the Act and Regulations, and are consistent with the annual financial statements which are prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards. The budget also includes detailed information about the rates and charges to be levied, the Capital Works program to be undertaken and other financial information, which Council requires in order to make an informed decision about the adoption of the budget. In advance of preparing the budget, Officers first review and update Council's long term financial projections. The preparation of the budget, within this longer term context, begins with Officers preparing the operating and capital components of the annual budget during January, February and March. A draft consolidated budget is then prepared and various iterations are considered by Council at informal briefings during March and April. A ‘proposed’ budget is prepared in accordance with the Act and is submitted to Council in May. Council is then required to give ’public notice’ that it intends to ’adopt’ the budget. It must give 28 days notice of its intention to adopt the proposed budget and make the budget available for inspection at its offices and on its web site. A person has a right to make a submission on any proposal contained in the budget and any submission must be considered before adoption of the budget by Council. The final step is for Council to adopt the budget after receiving and considering any submissions from interested parties. The budget is required to be adopted and a copy submitted to the Minister by 31 August each year.

Banyule City Council Budget 2013/2014

1. Linkage to The City Plan (Council Plan) The Annual Budget has been developed within Council’s overall planning framework. This framework guides the Council in identifying community needs and aspirations over the long-term, converting these into medium (Council Plan) and short-term (Annual Budget) objectives, key directions, initiatives, activities and resource requirements. This is then made accountable through Audited Financial and Performance Statements (containing our key performance indicators) and our statutory annual report to the community. Essential in the planning and application of Council’s resources is the critical link to the community. Banyule undertakes an ongoing and iterative process of engagement across all parts of our community. We use community information along with key demographic data, our legislative context and industry benchmarks to assess the appropriate level of service for our community. We test these services against both national and international standards of quality, efficiency and effectiveness. There are direct and obvious links between the broad range of information we gather and the activities we fund to meet our strategic intent. We review this annually and re-assess our activities and areas of emphasis for our community on this basis. Through extensive community engagement and feedback, with a concentrated and targeted effort over the period November 2012 to May 2013, we have strengthened the areas of focus in our new City Plan 2013-2017 and in our Budget 2013-2014. These include: • • • • • • • • •
The building of a strong and vibrant community Improving communication with our community so we are better informed as to things that matter. Identifying opportunities that bring social and economic benefits to the community Developing local activity centres in an appropriate and sustainable way. Making land-use planning more consistent and see that it improves local neighbourhood character Ensuring comprehensive transport planning and advocacy on transport and congestion issues. Continuing a strong focus on delivering quality, value for money services Ensuring our financial sustainability. Making sure we continue to deliver our services to the levels expected. Advocating to other levels of government on important community issues, even where it is not Council’s direct delivery role, and ensuring that this is done in the strongest terms to affect change for the betterment of Banyule.
We have also ‘closed the loop’ by showing our community how we have directly responded to what they have said during our community engagement process. This has been captured through a series of key summary papers that showcase ‘What you said’, and ‘How we are using what you said’. This includes a summary of how the information links with the City Plan objectives. It is part of our ongoing program and commitment to communicating and engaging with our community, and responding to community needs. The extended series of themes and issues raised are as follows: People Themes: • Promoting and supporting good health for people of different ages, life stages and backgrounds. •
Providing a broader range of passive and active recreation opportunities.
• •
Providing open spaces, environments and facilities that encourage people to get active and out. Providing and advocating for services and resources that are accessible and inclusive to all.
•
Inclusion, connection and diversity.
•
Safety in local communities.

1.1
Strategic planning framework
Strategic Resource Plan The Strategic Resource Plan, included in the City Plan document, details the financial and non-financial resources required for the life of the City Plan, to achieve Council’s strategic objectives. Banyule’s Strategic Resource Plan, as set out by legislation, consists of the following: • •
The ‘Performance – Use our resources wisely’ objective. This includes key directions for achieving the objective, and focus areas for the next four years The Financial Resources section, which includes information on financial position, financial statements and commentary on these.
‘Performance’ is about managing our resources wisely, providing organisational support services, strategic planning and risk management. We are charged with the stewardship of the resources of the municipality. The community expects that these resources will be managed in a responsible, sustainable and accountable way. Our operations are based on responsible management, risk mitigation, strong customer service, and continuous improvement. We value our staff and recognise the integral role they play in the provision of Best Value services to our community. We recognise that it is critical for us to protect and develop our non-financial resources to meet the needs of our community. These non-financial resources include: human resource management and organisational development; knowledge management and information services; and asset management stewardship We also undertake a number of internal planning roles to ensure we maintain the appropriate strategic direction of our services. In addition, our ‘Performance’ objective is underpinned by an extensive policy context and strategic framework based on the following: •
The Local Government Act 1989 - The LG Act includes requirements around the Council Plan, the Budget, statutory reporting requirements and Best Value
•
Our legal responsibilities as a business entity and employer - to adhere to all employer related legislation
•
We have in place our Banyule Management System, which incorporates a certification program against three key National and International Standards in Quality, Occupational Health and Safety and Environmental Management.
•
We have a number of key supporting plans that provide direction in important support function areas, such as information and communication technology, human resources, records management policy, and Staff and Councillor code of conduct.
•
10 year Capital Works plan
•
Our organisational ‘working together working better’ values
The Strategic Resource Plan outlines how Council will manage our financial and non-financial resources over the next four years to achieve our strategic objectives. It consists of the ‘Performance: Use our resources wisely’ objective and the ‘Financial Resources’ section, which includes information on financial position and key financial statements.
Banyule City Council Budget 2013/2014

In addition, the Strategic Resource Plan describes how we manage our financial resources in a sustainable manner. Prudent management enables our staffing, physical resources and community services to be maintained in a way that meets our community’s current and future needs. This includes developing sustainable income streams and financial independence, and contributing to an affordable quality of life and rates that support the services and infrastructure for our community. Our Rating Context Our commitment to managing our resources wisely will be achieved by the following key directions: 5.1
Develop and deliver best value services and facilities
5.2
Provide responsible financial management and business planning processes
5.3
Enable good governance and accountability with minimal risk
5.4
Create a productive and engaged workforce
5.5
Maintain and strengthen corporate information and innovation
5.6
Plan and manage the systems and assets that support Council’s service delivery
Council has set a rate in this budget which clearly reflects the community’s wishes around service quality and level. The balance between fairness, equity and financial security has been carefully considered. Land is a finite resource in Banyule. Our Council is committed to ensuring that the effective use of land resources benefits the whole community, as each land holding contributes to the shared infrastructure and services of Council. As such, Council differentially rates its vacant commercial and residential land to ensure an inequity in the shared contribution to infrastructure is not created through the underdevelopment of vacant land. We also strive to encourage the best use development of land. Banyule values appropriate commercial and industrial development. However, we also acknowledge an increased impact on our shared infrastructure by these developments. We choose to differentially rate these properties to ensure an equitable outcome to infrastructure costs across our community. We understand the shared value to our community of cultural and recreational lands. Council supports and encourages the development of this shared benefit by rating these properties at a lower level. We update the Strategic Resource Plan annually.

Annual Budget The Annual Budget is then framed within the Strategic Resource Plan, taking into account the activities and initiatives included in the Annual Budget which contribute to achieving the strategic objectives specified in the Council Plan. The diagram below depicts the strategic planning framework of Council.
The timing of each component of the planning framework is critical to the successful achievement of the planned outcomes. The Council Plan, including the Strategic Resource Plan, is required to be completed by 30 June following a general election and is reviewed each year by February to ensure that there is sufficient time for officers to develop their Activities and Initiatives and Key Strategic Activities in draft form prior to the commencement of the Annual Budget process in March. It also allows time for targets to be established during the Strategic Resource Planning process to guide the preparation of the Annual Budget. Local Government Planning and Accountability Framework Banyule City Council adheres to the Local Government Planning and Reporting Better Practice Guide in the development of its strategic planning process: “Effective planning and reporting by councils is essential for ensuring transparency and accountability to the community and other levels of government as to how public money is being spent and the quality of services delivered. The Local Government Act 1989 and Local Government (Finance and Reporting) Regulations 2004 contain a number of requirements to ensure councils use resources efficiently and effectively and are accountable to their local community. The following diagram shows the relationships between the key statutory planning and reporting documents that make up the planning and accountability framework for local government.
Banyule City Council Budget 2013/2014

Planning and Accountability Framework
Role of the Victorian Auditor General The Victorian Auditor-General has powers under Section 16 of the Audit Act 1994 to prepare and table a report to the Victorian Parliament outlining the result of the local government audits. This report provides a summary of audit opinions on the statements contained in each of Victoria’s 79 council annual reports, addressing the timeliness of their financial and performance reports, their financial sustainability and aspects of how they manage their budget processes and outsourced arrangements. This closes the loop in the accountability framework by ensuring councils are subject to independent scrutiny in relation to their performance. Key Documents Victorian councils are required to prepare a number of key documents under the Local Government Act 1989 and as prescribed in the Local Government (Finance and Reporting) Regulations 2004. These are: •
Council plan: this is council’s medium-term planning tool which should reflect the wishes of the community and other stakeholders. The council plan must describe the organisation’s strategic objectives, strategies for achieving the objectives, how progress will be measured and the resources required to implement the council plan for a period of at least four years.
•
Strategic resource plan: the strategic resource plan is a rolling plan of at least four years and forms part of the Council Plan. The strategic resource plan should outline the resources that council requires to achieve the objectives described in the council plan, and include the standard statements as prescribed by the regulations to outline the financial and non-financial resources required.
•
Annual budget: the annual budget should reflect the priorities and objectives of the council plan and establish performance measures and targets for key strategic activities to monitor performance against the council plan. The annual budget reflects the first year of the strategic resource plan and must
Banyule City Council Budget 2013/2014
20
contain the standard statements and a description of the activities and initiatives to be funded. It should also provide information about services and capital works, and how they will be funded. •
Annual report: The annual report outlines the council’s performance as measured against the council plan, annual budget and strategic resource plan. Annual reports must contain standard and financial statements and a performance statement to report performance against the measures and targets related to the key strategic activities. Councils are also required to report on what they have achieved during the financial year in the report on operations. The annual report is acquitted in an audit by the Victorian Auditor-General’s Office at the end of the financial year.
Community Plan: Councils should take a leadership role in developing and facilitating community engagement and involvement in the preparation of their council plan. Although not a legislative requirement, the council plan can also be informed by long-term plans such as a community plan. A community plan typically describes the community’s long-term vision and aspirations and is a way of directly involving the community in the council plan preparation process. Council plans are typically nested within each long-term community plan”. Note: The information above is sourced from the ‘Local Government Planning and Reporting Better Practice Guide’ and accompanying fact sheet, provided by the State Government Department of Planning and Community Development (Circular No. 5/2013).

Our purpose
Vision (What we strive for)
Banyule, a green, liveable and prosperous city, sustaining a healthy and engaged community. The core principles that help us achieve our Vision are: Principles • Sustainability for our future • Community wellbeing •
Community participation
• •
Fairness in all we do Maintaining our community’s trust
1.3 Strategic objectives Council delivers activities and initiatives through the delivery of its services in line with the Best Value Principles. These contribute to the achievement of our Strategic Objectives as set out in the Council Plan for the years 2013-2017. During the recent community engagement program Council asked its community about how we can make Banyule an even better place to live, work and play. More than 1,200 people have told us their ideas through surveys, forums, through their community groups, and directly at various festivals and events. The consultation process involved extensive partnership and collaboration across Council. Numerous service units have been involved and engaged with their respective customer groups in the consultation. In addition to the City Plan and Community Plan, the consultation gathered information for the Arts, Recreation, Open Space, and Early Years Plans. In addition to the 1,200 people who told us their ideas, we have included the findings of other research and consultation conducted with the Banyule community over an extended period of the last 3 years. This adds to the variety of voices and views on how we can make Banyule an even better place. What our community told us The consultation asked a range of questions including how people felt about Council’s Key Directions and Focus Areas within the City Plan, and whether they could suggest changes and additional priorities. People were also asked more open-ended questions such as: “what do you like most about your neighbourhood?” and “what would you like to see in your neighbourhood?” Results There was overwhelming support for our City Plan Key Directions and Focus Areas, with 85% of survey responses saying that they thought the Focus Area was either very important or important. However, many of the comments and feedback relate to specific activities that come under the City Plan objectives. Therefore, the information we feed back to our community includes examples of what action is occurring under each Key Direction and Focus Area.
Banyule City Council Budget 2013/2014
22
Some of the issues identified in the consultation relate to specific actions or requests. Where appropriate, these have been fed into the Customer Request Management (CRM) system for action by the relevant area of Council. The final type of feedback relates to issues that do not come under Council’s sole responsibility, for example addressing traffic concerns. These issues feed into the Community Plan process. We will work on an implementation process for the Community Plan where Council works in partnership with local and community organisations and residents on issues of concern such as improving transport, community safety and the natural environment. A clearer link to the outcomes of how we have responded to the community engagement findings is articulated in the City Plan through the inclusion of key initiatives. These initiatives reflect the intent of Council to provide a comprehensive suite of services to its community and are highlighted to clearly demonstrate the actual manifestation of the strategic intent. This allows our community to comment in detail on whether Council has fairly represented the priorities and needs of its community. The following table lists the Strategic Objectives as described in the Banyule City Plan 2013-2017, being Banyule’s Council Plan. Strategic Objective

2.1
Strategic Objective 1: People – Community Strengthening and Support
‘People’ is about our desire for optimal health, for better living conditions and improved quality of life. Good health is the state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease. Health and wellbeing can be supported at any age through individual and public policy measures. Wellbeing is fundamental to quality of life, quality of human relationships and the capacity to participate in education, work, recreation and the community. We are committed to improving the health for our community and identifying and minimising threats to public health. This is a shared responsibility for which we have delegated legislative responsibility, and we undertake this in conjunction with other agencies and partners, such as the Department of Health, with whom we work closely. We will support health and community wellbeing through the following key directions: 1.1
Promote and support health and wellbeing
1.2
Provide services for people at important life stages
1.3
Develop and promote safety and resilience in our community
1.4
Celebrate and promote Banyule’s diversity and heritage
1.5
Support people to achieve their economic potential
1.6
Plan and prepare for emergency events.

Maintain and improve Banyule as a great place to live
3.2
Strengthen local activity and employment areas

3. Budget influences This section sets out the key budget influences arising from the internal and external environment within which the Council operates.
3.1 Snapshot of Banyule City Council This section sets out demographic information about the municipality which influences budgets for various services. Banyule City Council Banyule City Council was formed in 1994 and comprises 21 suburbs that lie between seven and 21 kilometres north-east of central Melbourne. In total it covers an area of 63 square kilometres. Population The estimated resident population of Banyule at 2011 is 122,722. Since 2006, the population has grown by 3% from 119,163. (Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, Estimated Resident Population). Age Groups Compared to the metropolitan area as a whole, Banyule has a lower proportion of residents in the younger age groups and a higher proportion in the older age groups. The major differences between the age structure of the City of Banyule and the Melbourne average show: • •
A larger percentage of residents aged over 50 including older workers, retirees and seniors (35% compared to 30%), and; A smaller percentage of the younger workforce, 25 to 34 year olds (13% compared to 15%).
Although some of the older age groups (60 to 69 years of age) have continued to rise markedly in size (by 19% since 2006), there has also been recent growth in the youngest age group (0 to 4 year olds), up by 13% since 2006. (Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, Census of Population and Housing, 2011 and 2006). Births Alongside an ageing population, there has been a slight overall increase in the number of babies born, from 1,595 in 2006/07 to 1,659 in 2011/12. (Source: Department of Education and Early Childhood Development, 2012). Cultural diversity Banyule is a culturally and linguistically diverse municipality. There are over 50 different cultural backgrounds identified by residents, and over 30 different languages are spoken at home. A greater proportion of Banyule residents were born overseas compared to five years ago (22.1%, up from 19.7%), a trend that mirrors the broader picture in Victoria (26.2%, up from 23.8%). Likewise, a greater proportion of residents speak a non-English language at home (19.6%, up from 17.0%). The dominant birthplaces of Banyule residents born overseas are Italy and China, with emerging trends for China, India, New Zealand, Malaysia, Somalia, South Africa and Iran. At the last Census count, there were 619 people of Indigenous Australian origin, comprising 0.5% of the population compared to 0.7% in Victoria.

Between 2006 and 2011, Banyule has experienced a significant shift in cultural and linguistic diversity. There are (4,471) fewer residents with an Australian ancestral background, and more from other ancestral backgrounds. Ancestral groups with the largest increase in numbers include English (by 2,855), Irish (by 1,201), Scottish (by 1,361), Italian (by 644) and Chinese (by 1,506). Residents of Indian ancestry have almost doubled in number (from 1,148 in 2006 to 2,156 in 2011), and those with Somali ancestry have increased significantly as a proportion of their total population size (from 564 in 2006 to 864 in 2011. Nearly 20% of residents speak a language other than English at home, which is a rise of almost a fifth from 2006. The main languages other than English spoken at home are Italian, Greek, Mandarin, Cantonese and Arabic. Between 2006 and 2011, languages that have experienced the most growth are Mandarin, Somali, Hindi and Punjabi. (Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, Census of Population and Housing, 2006 and 2011). Housing There was an increase in the number of dwellings in Banyule between 2006 and 2011 of 1,918, a growth of 4.1%, however the increase was not as large as in Victoria where the number of dwellings rose by 8.6%. The average household size has remained stable in Banyule and Victoria at 2.56 persons per household. Analysis of the housing tenure of the population of Banyule in 2011 compared to Victoria shows that there is a larger proportion of households which own their dwelling; a smaller proportion purchasing their dwelling; and a smaller proportion who are renters. Overall, 38.0% of the population own their dwelling; 33.6% are purchasing, and 23.4% are renting, compared with 33.0%, 34.5% and 25.9% respectively for Victoria. Household structure trends for Banyule as a whole indicate that there is an increasing proportion of older couples, an increasing proportion of couples with younger children, a decreasing proportion of one parent families with young children and a stable proportion of older lone persons. (Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, Census of Population and Housing, 2006 and 2011). Education Banyule residents tend to have completed a higher level of secondary schooling compared to Victoria as a whole. 56.0% of residents completed Year 12 or equivalent compared to 49.8% across the State. Banyule also has a lower proportion of residents (25.3%) who left school early (Year 10 or less) compared to Victoria (29.2%). Residents of Watsonia and Heidelberg West were less likely to have completed Year 12 or equivalent than the Banyule average (47% and 46% of residents respectively). Compared with 2006, there are now more Banyule residents with degree level or above qualifications and fewer residents with no qualifications at all. A greater proportion of Banyule residents are not attending educational institutions than Victorian residents as a whole – 71.3% compared to 69.8%. The lower figure may reflect the older population profile of Banyule in comparison to the State. (Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, Census of Population and Housing, 2006 and 2011).

Employment In Banyule, 58,669 residents are employed from a total labour force of 61,388. Full-time workers account for 58.7% and part-time workers account for 35% of the workforce. 4.4% of residents are unemployed. The statistics compare favourably with Melbourne as a whole, where the unemployment rate is 5.5%. Nationally the figure is 5.6%. Banyule has a higher proportion of part-time workers than Melbourne; 35% compared to 32.3%. However, the trend in Banyule and Melbourne over the past ten years has seen a growing proportion of the workforce on part-time hours. Trends indicate that although unemployment is relatively low it is growing. In Banyule the unemployment rate rose from 4.2% in 2006 to 4.4% in 2011. Unemployed residents are unevenly spread across Banyule and some areas demonstrate significantly higher unemployment rates than others. Banyule’s main industries are health care, retail, education, manufacturing and professional and scientific services. A large number of the jobs available in Banyule are filled locally. (Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, Census of Population and Housing, 2006 and 2011). Budget implications There are no short term budget implications related to changes in Councils social and demographic make-up. Long term planning and provision is being set for two divergent factors that are occurring in Banyule’s demographic make-up: 1. Banyule’s population cohort in the “baby boomer” 60+ category is increasing overall and associated service will need to increase to provide for both aging well in place and increases in social support services. 2. Banyule has experienced a mini baby boom which will continue to put pressure on early years and recreational services in the mid- term. Further, a State based and Council supported initiative around neighbourhood renewal continues within Heidelberg West. We continue to see a significant shift in the population make of this area to emerging migrant groups. Council continues to support appropriate increases in development density around its activity centre which will have ongoing implications for many service areas and infrastructure provision. Council’s structure planning processes for these precincts is well established. 3.2 External influences In preparing the 2013/14 budget, a number of external influences have been taken into consideration, because they will impact on the services delivered by Council in the budget period. These include: • The ABS Consumer Price Index (CPI) reflects increasing costs for goods and services. The actual CPI was running at 2.2% nationally for the 12 month ending 31/12/2012. A CPI factor of 2.5% has been used to adjust 2013/14 budgets where contractual obligations require an annual CPI adjustment or budget history indicates goods and services have generally moved in accordance with CPI. However a price movement index prepared by the Municipal Association of Victoria (MAV) has shown that for some Council's services such as food supplies for meals on wheels and road construction costs have increased significantly above the CPI.

The 2013/14 budget year will see the conclusion of Council's current 3 year enterprise bargaining agreement. Council must renegotiate a new Collective Agreement during the 2013/14 year which will commence on 1 July 2014 for a term to be negotiated. On 18 December 2012 Council used approximately $11 million dollars of cash reserves to extinguish its share of the Vision Super defined benefit plan liability. Accordingly Council's return on investments for 2013/2014 will be impacted by this payment. Domestic interest rates (i.e. 90 and 180 day rates) have been volatile over a number of years and may reduce further over the next 12 months depending on the status of economic activity. For example in April 2008 the 90 day bill rate was around 7.8%, in March 2012 around 4.49% and March 2013 around 3.13%. As such Council has budgeted for a reduction in the amount of income from investments for 2013/14 based on anticipated lower returns on term deposits. The general purpose grant allocation from the Victoria Grants Commission is budgeted to be $3,552,462 (excludes local roads grant component). This grant has steadily reduced in real dollar terms over many years since its peak in 2001/02 when Council received $4,136,366. The State Government's landfill levy will increase by 10% in 2013/14 from $48.40 to $53.20 per tonne of waste disposal which increases the cost to Council for disposal of waste into landfill. The levy has increased from $9 per tonne in 2008/09 to $53.20 per tonne in 2013/14. A carbon price introduced by the Federal Government on 1 July 2012 impacts Council by way of a landfill gate fee on rubbish disposal. The carbon price is expected to rise by CPI over the next two financial years. In 2013/14 an amount of $102,500 will be spent on the carbon tax for the kerbside waste collection service. The amount of kerbside waste tonnage is expected to increase slightly in the 2013/14 year compared to 2012/13. In the 2015/16 financial year the government will float the carbon price and the movement of the carbon price is likely to be influenced by overseas prices, which at the moment are considerably lower. A new fire services property levy will apply to all residential and commercial properties commencing 1/07/2013. Council will be required to collect this levy on behalf of the Victorian State Government and remit it to the State Revenue Office in order to fund the operations of the MF&ESB and CFA. A number of Council properties will also be subject to the fire services levy. Under new legislation, the Fire Services Property Levy Act 2012, was introduced as a result of recommendations by the Victorian Bushfires Royal Commission (VBRC).
3.3 Internal influences There are also a number of internal influences which impact on the 2013/14 Budget as detailed below: • Street Light replacement is planned to occur over the next two financial years. More energy efficient lights will be procured which will assist in the reduction of Council's annual energy power costs, estimated to start at around $300,000 per annum. The savings in energy cost will repay the initial outlay for upgrading the lighting in approximately 15 years. A further significant benefit will be environmental improvement due to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions estimated to be a 19% reduction. • A stormwater harvesting project is currently underway at three sites being Kalparrin Gardens, Chelsworth Park and DeWinton Reserve. It is anticipated that 138 million litres of storm water will be harvested from these sites which represents approximately $300,000 worth of portable water. This water will be used to irrigate 40% of Council's active open space including Ivanhoe Golf course. Significant environmental benefits will also result from this project. • The WorkCover premiums are projected to reduce slightly in 2013/14 due to Council's sound claims experience in recent years. A health and wellbeing strategy has been

70
•
•
implemented and focusses upon areas in the work place where the incidence of injury based on past statistics have occurred. Council has also endeavoured to return staff to active duty as soon as possible after an injury has occurred. Insurance premiums are likely to increase in coming years due to numerous natural disasters that have occurred both in Australia and around the world, costing hundreds and millions of dollars. In particular substantial deterioration in claims performance over the last twelve months will put upward pressure on Council contributions to the liability mutual insurance scheme operated by the MAV. Generally service levels across the board have been budgeted to be maintained at 2012/13 levels or varied with changes in government funding, contractual arrangements, legal obligations or operational budget transfers resulting from new budget initiatives.
3.4 Budget principles The external and internal influences detailed above have in part guided the preparation of the budget. In addition the following budget principles were also provided to guide officers. •
The fees and charges for 2013/14 to be varied in line with CPI, statutory requirements or in line with industry charges for like services.
•
Federal and State government grants to be increased in dollar terms based on CPI or other known factors such as changes in service levels.
•
New revenue sources to be identified where possible and revenue generated from property leases to be examined and benchmarked with like external sector returns on investments.
•
Service levels to be maintained or improved at 2012/13 levels within existing resources with an emphasis on innovation and efficiency.
•
Salaries and wages to be increased in line with the current enterprise bargaining agreement for 2013/14.
•
Consultants and contract labour to be minimized and targeted towards areas where skill and experience deficiencies exist.
•
New initiatives or Capital Works projects to be supported with a comprehensive business case.
•
Real savings in expenditure in the current 2012/13 financial year to be captured and flow through to the operating result.
•
Overall the budget to have regard to the Victorian Auditor General's sustainability assessment ratios for underlying result, liquidity, indebtedness, self-financing, capital replacement and renewal gap.
3.5 Long term strategies The budget includes consideration of a number of long term strategies and contextual information to assist Council to prepare the Budget in a proper financial management context. These include a Strategic Resource Plan for 2013/14 to 2016/17 (section 8), Rating Information (section 9) and Other Long Term Strategies (section 10) including borrowings, infrastructure and service delivery.

4. Analysis of operating budget This section analyses the operating budget including expected income and expenses of the Council for the 2013/14 year. 4.1
Budgeted income statement
Total income Total expenses Surplus (deficit) for the year Grants – non-recurrent Underlying surplus (deficit)
Ref 4.2 4.3 4.2.5
Budget 2012/13 $’000 118,454 (117,804) 650 (4,422) (3,772)
Budget 2013/14 $’000 121,670 (121,073) 597 (2,356) (1,759)
Variance $’000 3,216 (3,269) (53) 2,066 2,013
4.1.1 Underlying deficit ($2.01 million decrease)
The underlying result is the net surplus or deficit for the year adjusted for capital grants, contributions of non-monetary assets and other once-off adjustments. It is a measure of financial sustainability and Council's ability to achieve its service delivery objectives as it is not impacted by non-recurring or once-off items of revenues and expenses which can often mask the operating result. The underlying result for the 2013/14 year is a deficit of $1.76 million which is a decrease of the deficit of $2.01 million over the 2012/13 year. In calculating the underlying result, Council has excluded grants received for capital purposes as funding for the Capital Works program is once-off and usually non-recurrent. 4.2

4.2.1 General rates and charges (including municipal charge and supplementary rates) ($12.35 million increase)
It is proposed that general rates income (including Municipal Charge and supplementary rates) be increased by 18.47% or $12.35 million over 2012/13 to $79.21 million. $6.56 million of Municipal charges will be collected and while previously included in statutory fees and charges, will now be reclassified with general rates in 2013/14 year. The rates (including both general and supplementary rates) are budgeted to increase 8.66% or $5.79 million in the 2013/14 year. Section 9 ‘Rating Information’ includes a more detailed analysis of the rates and charges to be charged for 2013/14. 4.2.2 Special rates and charges ($0.042 million increase)
Special rates and charges will slightly increase by 8.30% or $0.042 million compared to 2012/13 budget. 4.2.3 Interests on rates and special charges ($0.26 million decrease)
Interests on rates and special charges will decrease by 91.79% or $0.26 million compared to 2012/13 budget. This is due to a change in legislation which changes the date for calculation of interest on late payment of rates, from the date the rates were struck to the due date of the rate instalment. 4.2.4 Grants - recurrent ($2.74 million increase)
Operating grants include all monies received from State and Federal sources for the purposes of funding the delivery of Council’s services to ratepayers. Overall, the level of operating grants has increased by 29.68% or $2.74 million compared to 2012/13. Significant movements in grant funding are summarised below:
Grant Funding Types
Victoria Grants Commission Child Care and Pre-school Services Leisure Service - Access All Abilities
Budget
Budget
2012/13 $’000 2,036 1,017 71
2013/14 $’000 4,419 1,410 118
Variance $’000 2383 393 47
Increased specific recurrent grant funding reflects expected increased demand for these services. The increase in Victoria Grants Commission (VGC) funding, results from an expectation that the 2013/14 VGC funding will only be received within the 2013/14 financial year, not as 50% of 2012/13 funding pre-paid by the Commonwealth Government and received in the 2010/11 financial year. 4.2.5 Grants - non-recurrent ($2.07 million decrease)
Capital grants include all monies received from State, Federal and community sources for the purposes of funding the Capital Works program. Overall the level of capital grants has decreased by 46.72% or $2.07 million compared to 2012/13 due mainly to specific funding for some large Capital Works projects. Section 6 ‘Analysis of Capital Budget’ includes a more detailed analysis of the grants expected to be received during the 2013/14 year.

4.2.6 Statutory fees and fines ($1.59 million decrease)
Statutory fees relate mainly to fees and fines levied in accordance with legislation and include Building & Planning permits, Infringement fines, Health Act registrations, Land Tax fees, Roads/ footpaths re-instatement fees, Asset inspection & permits and Election Fines. Changes in statutory fees are made in accordance with legislative requirements. Statutory fees are budgeted to decrease by 20.70% or $1.59 million compared to 2012/13 mainly due to the reclassification of Municipal Charges to general rates and charges. 4.2.7 User fees and charges ($2.70 million decrease)
User fees and charges relate mainly to the recovery of service delivery costs through the charging of fees to users of Council’s services. These include Aquatic Centres, Child Day Care, Community buses, halls and events, Delivered meals, Functions centre, Home care, Local law, Sports ground rentals, Transfer station tipping. In setting the budget, the key principle for determining the level of user charges has been to ensure that increases reflect acceptable market levels. User fees and charges are projected to decrease by 15.47% or $2.70 million over 2012/13. The main area contributing to the decrease is a $2.04 million reduction in charges from the Function centre, which offsets the equivalent amount decreasing its expenditure, as the result of changing to an external contractor. Council has also anticipated a reduction in fees from the Transfer Station of $1.59 million mainly due to the expectation of a reduction in the quantity of waste disposal. A detailed listing of fees and charges is included in Appendix E. 4.2.8 Interest income ($0.26 million decrease)
Interest on investments will decrease by 14.22% or $0.26 million compared to 2012/13 budget. This is due to both a reduction in interest rates on offer for our investments, as well as a decrease in the amount of cash available for investment. In 2012/13 there was pending cash on hand waiting to be spent on large Capital Works projects. 4.2.9 Rental income ($0.003 million decrease)
Rental income will slightly decrease by 0.17% or $0.003 million compared to 2012/13 budget. 4.2.10 Contributions - cash ($1.41 million decrease)
Contributions relate to monies paid by sporting clubs and other local organisations, in relation to public recreation grounds and preschool development. Contributions are projected to decrease by $1.41 million or 37.69% compared to 2012/13 mainly due to Council receiving $1.40 million less in contributions towards the Stormwater Management Project as construction nears completion. 4.2.11 Net gain on sale of assets ($3.68 million decrease)
Proceeds from the sale of Council assets is forecast to increase by $1.55 million for 2013/14. This increase in sales is mainly due to an increase in the value of properties to be sold where the properties are deemed surplus to council requirements. However this increase in sales value is more than offset by an increase in the Written Down Value of the assets to be sold of $5.23 million.

4.2.12 Other income ($0.040 million increase)
Other income is forecast to increase by 49.38% or $0.040 million compared to 2012/13. This is made up of a $0.006 million increase in sales of Right Of Way, a $0.009 million increase in sponsorship and a $0.025 million increase in other miscellaneous revenue.

Employee costs include all labour related expenditure such as wages and salaries and on-costs such as allowances, leave entitlements, employer superannuation and WorkCover, etc. Employee costs are forecast to increase by $2.17 million. This increase relates to two key factors: • •
Final instalment of Council’s current Enterprise Bargaining Agreement (EBA) which expires in June 2014. Anticipated wages growth due mainly to band movements for staff, annual leave, long service leave, work cover and superannuation.
In summary, average staff numbers (based on monthly averages) during the budget period are as follows:

4.3.2 Materials and services ($2.40 million decrease)
Materials and services include the purchases of consumables and payments to contractors for the provision of services. Materials and services are forecast to decrease by 6.28% or $2.40 million compared to 2012/13 Contractor costs are forecast to decrease by $1.91 million or 10.85% compared to 2012/13 and relates mainly to the decrease in contractor costs for the Functions centre which is now being run by an external company as a result of a tendering process. Waste Disposal Costs are forecast to decrease by 3.91% or $0.26 million compared to 2012/13. Furthermore, program costs are forecast to decrease by 13.39% or $0.17 million compared to 2012/13. 4.3.3 Utility charges ($0.35 million increase)
Utility costs relate to telecommunications, including usage of telephones and other utilities such as water, gas and electricity. Utility costs are forecast to increase by 11.37% or $0.35 million compared to 2012/13 resulting partly from additional cost from the carbon tax and general tariff increases. 4.3.4 Depreciation and amortisation ($2.57 million increase)
Depreciation is an accounting measure which attempts to allocate the value of an asset over its useful life for Council’s property, plant and equipment including infrastructure assets such as roads and drains. The depreciation increase of $2.57 million for 2013/14 is due mainly to a full year worth of depreciation being applied to assets constructed as part of the 2012/13 Capital Works program including the RALC project. It is also affected by the impact from reducing the infrastructure assets' useful life. Refer to section 6. ‘Analysis of Capital Budget’ for a more detailed analysis of Council’s Capital Works program for the 2013/14 year. 4.3.5 Donations ($0.22 million increase)
Council's contribution to various community service organisations has increased by 29.68% or $0.22 million compared to 2012/13. This is due to Council's determination to make a greater contribution towards the local projects and organisations that provide support and recreational activities to a large number of Banyule's residents. 4.3.6 Finance costs ($1.44 million increase)
Borrowing costs relate to the amount of interest charged by financial institutions on funds borrowed by Council. The increase in borrowing costs is a result of Council taking out new borrowings to fund new Capital Works (School Sites & Ivanhoe Aquatic Centre) in 2013/14 year. Refer to section 10.1.' Borrowing cost ' for a more detailed analysis of Council's Finance costs for the 2013/14 year. 4.3.7 Other expenses ($1.08 million decrease)
Other expenses relate to a range of unclassified items including contributions to community groups, bad and doubtful debts and other miscellaneous expenditure items. Other expenses are forecast to decrease by 13.06% or $1.08 million compared to 2012/13. This is mainly due to the cessation of Council’s contribution to the Metropolitan Emergency Fire Service due to a change in legislation regarding government funding arrangements.

5. Analysis of budgeted cash position This section analyses the expected cash flows from the operating, investing and financing activities of Council for the 2013/14 year. Budgeting cash flows for Council is a key factor in setting the level of rates and providing a guide to the level of capital expenditure that can be sustained with or without using existing cash reserves. The analysis is based on three main categories of cash flows: •
Operating activities - Refers to the cash generated or used in the normal service delivery functions of Council. Cash remaining after paying for the provision of services to the community may be available for investment in Capital Works, or repayment of debt.
•
Investing activities - Refers to cash generated or used in the enhancement or creation of infrastructure and other assets. These activities also include the acquisition and sale of other assets such as vehicles, property and equipment.
•
Financing activities - Refers to cash generated or used in the financing of Council functions and include borrowings from financial institutions and advancing of repayable loans to other organisations. These activities also include repayment of the principal component of loan repayments for the year.

5.1.1 Operating activities ($18.09 million increase)
The increase in cash inflows from operating activities is due mainly to an increase in rates and charges income of $12.39 million which is partially offset by $6.56 million in municipal charges reclassified from other receipts. Employee costs have decreased by $8.08 million which is mainly due to $10.99 million in unfunded superannuation liability being paid in 2012/13 and no further liability call expected in 2013/14. This reduction in cost is partially offset by an increase in pay levels for all bandings across the organisation as per the Enterprise Bargaining Agreement. The net cash flows from operating activities do not equal the surplus/(deficit) for the year as the expected revenues and expenses of the Council include non-cash items which have been excluded from the Cash Flow Statement. The budgeted operating result is reconciled to budgeted cash flows available from operating activities as set out in the following table.

5.1.2 Investing activities ($13.29 million movement)
The large increase in payments for investing activities represents the planned increase in Capital Works expenditure disclosed in section 10 of this budget report. Proceeds from sale of assets are forecast to increase by $1.55 million due to settlement of land sales achieved during 2012/13. 5.1.3 Financing activities ($28.38 million movement)
For 2013/14 Council will take out $30.07 million in new loan borrowings. This will be partially offset by an increase in principal repayments of $0.26 million and an increase in interest payments of $1.44 million from 2012/13 to 2013/14. 5.1.4 Cash and cash equivalents at end of the financial year ($0.83 million increase)
Overall, total cash and cash equivalents are budgeted to increase from $28.33 million to $29.16 million as at 30 June 2014 and continue to increase in the following three years.

Restricted and unrestricted cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents held by Council are restricted in part, and not fully available for Council’s operations. The budgeted cash flow statement above indicates that Council is estimating at 30 June 2014 it will have cash and cash equivalents of $29.16 million, some of which have been restricted as shown in the following table.

5.2.1 Statutory reserves ($0.252 million at 30/6/2014)
These funds must be applied for specified statutory purposes in accordance with various legislative and contractual requirements. While these funds earn interest revenue for Council, the funds are not available for other purposes. During the 2013/14 year $0.45 million is budgeted to be the net transfer from Statutory Reserves. 5.2.2 Discretionary reserves ($11.35 million at 30/6/2014)
These funds are available for whatever purpose Council decides is their best use. In this case Council has made tentative decisions regarding the future use of these funds. During the 2013/14 year $41.59 million is budgeted to be transferred to and $39.81 million from Discretionary Reserves. Of the balance on hand at 30 June 2013 $6.88 million is to be expended on incomplete Capital Works to be carried forward to the 2013/14 year. The decisions about future use of these funds has been reflected in Council’s Strategic Resource Plan and any changes in future use of the funds will be made in the context of the future funding requirements set out in the plan. 5.2.3 Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents ($17.56 million at 30/6/2014)
These funds are free of all specific Council commitments and represent funds available to meet daily cash flow requirements, unexpected short term needs and any budget commitments which will be expended in the following year such as grants, contributions or carried forward Capital Works. Of the balance on hand at 30 June 2013, $6.88 million is to be expended to complete Capital Works carried forward to the 2013/14 year. Council regards these funds as the minimum necessary to ensure that it can meet its commitments as and when they fall due without borrowing further funds. A high level of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents is required as Council's rates will now be paid by quarterly instalments in September, November, February and May each year.

6.1.8 Plant and equipment ($1.42 million)
Plant and equipment includes information technology, heavy plant and gym and office equipment. For the 2013/14 year, $1.42 million will be expended on plant and equipment. The significant projects include ongoing replacement of heavy plant ($0.61 million), upgrade and replacement of information technology ($0.30 million) and RALC equipment purchases ($0.25 million). 6.1.9 Furniture fittings ($0.03 million)
For the 2013/14 year, $0.03 million will be expended on furniture and fittings. 6.1.10 Art collection ($0.015 million)
For the 2013/14 year, $0.015 million will be expended on the art collection. 6.1.11 Intangible assets ($0.22 million)
For the 2013/14 year $0.22 million will be expended on implementing software called Electronic Document Record Management System (EDRMS). 6.1.12 Asset renewal ($26.99 million), new assets ($26.22 million), asset expansion ($0.61 million) and asset upgrade ($5.44 million)
A distinction is made between expenditure on new assets, expenditure on asset renewal, expansion and upgrade. Expenditure on asset renewal is expenditure on an existing asset, which improves the service potential or the life of the asset. Expenditure on new assets does not have any element of expansion or upgrade of existing assets but will result in an additional burden for future operation, maintenance and capital renewal. The major projects included in the above categories, which constitute expenditure on new assets are the purchase of school sites, one property in Greensborough and EDRMS ($0.22 million). The major projects which constitute expenditure on renewing assets are the replacement of motor vehicles ($11.28 million), Local Roads Resheeting program ($1.27 million), redevelopment of IAFC ($5.24 million) and redevelopment of Olympic Village Learning Hub ($2.19 million). The remaining capital expenditure represents expansion and upgrades of existing assets. 6.2

6.2.5 Proceeds from sale of assets ($10.11 million)
Proceeds from sale of assets include motor vehicle sales in accordance with Council’s fleet renewal policy of $1.98 million. Properties are also budgeted to be sold to partly fund the Capital Works program. 6.2.6 Revenue ($6.37 million)
Council generates cash from its operating activities (Revenue), which is used as a funding source for the Capital Works program. It is forecast that $6.37 million will be generated from operations to fund the 2013/14 Capital Works program. 6.2.7 Carried forward ($11.42 million)
At the end of each financial year there are projects which are either incomplete or not commenced due to planning issues, weather delays, extended consultation, etc. For the 2012/13 year it is forecast that $11.42 million of Capital Works will be incomplete and the budget will be carried forward into the 2013/14 year. The $11.42 million of carried forward funding is made up by $1.74 million from reserves, $0.49 million from government grants, $1.00 million from community contributions, $2.57 million from loans, $4.98 million from proceeds from sale of assets and $0.64 million from revenue. Significant carried forward projects include replacing plant and vehicle ($4.80 million), Roads to Recovery ($0.48 million), redevelopment of IAFC ($2.60 million), RALC ($0.53 million), renewal of four childcare centres and pre-schools ($0.96 million) and implementation of stormwater harvesting projects ($0.81 million).

7.1.1 Current Assets ($0.69 million increase) and Non-Current Assets ($85.63 million increase)
Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in the bank and in petty cash. These balances are projected to increase by $0.83 million during the year mainly due to the surplus budgeted to be made. Trade and other receivables are monies owed to Council by ratepayers and other debtors. Both Short term (current) and Long term debtors (non-current) are not expected to change significantly in the budget. Other assets include items such as prepayment of expenses, which Council has paid in advance of service delivery. Infrastructure, property, plant and equipment is the largest component of Council’s worth and represents the value of all the roads, land, buildings, vehicles, equipment, etc. which has been built up by the Council over many years. The increase in this balance (plus intangible assets) is attributable to the net result of the Capital Works assets program ($59.25 million of additional assets), depreciation of assets ($15.48 million), the increment due to revalued assets ($56.00 million) and the sale of property, plant and equipment with a written down value of $14.14 million. 7.1.2 Current Liabilities ($2.35 million increase) and Non-Current Liabilities ($27.38 million increase)
Trade and other payables are those to whom Council owes money as at 30 June. These liabilities are budgeted to remain reasonably consistent with 2012/13 levels. Provisions are made up of accrued long service leave and annual leave, owing to employees. These employee entitlements are expected to increase by approximately $0.75 million in 2013/14. This is mainly due to an increase in pay rates for each banding level and is marginally affected by a budgeted increase in accrued leave hours available to be taken. Interest-bearing loans and borrowings are budgeted to increase by a net figure of $28.83 million which takes into account new loans drawn down during the year ($30.07 million) and the repayments made on new and existing loans ($1.24 million). 7.1.3 Working Capital ($3.93 million decrease)
Working capital is the excess of current assets above current liabilities. This calculation recognises that although Council has current assets, some of those assets are already committed to the future settlement of liabilities in the following 12 months, and are therefore not available for discretionary spending. Council has also committed further current assets to specific and restricted purposes, represented by reserves, which may not yet be represented as current liabilities at 30 June.

7.1.4 Equity ($56.60 million increase)
Total equity always equals net assets and is made up of the following components: •
Reserves include the Asset revaluation reserve and a number of Asset replacement reserves. The asset revaluation reserve represents the difference between the previously recorded value of assets and their current valuations. Asset replacement reserves are funds that Council wishes to identify as being set aside to meet a specific purpose in the future and to which there is no existing liability. These amounts are transferred out of the Accumulated Surplus of the Council to be separately disclosed.
•
Accumulated surplus is the value of all net assets less the Reserves that have accumulated over time. The decrease in accumulated surplus of $1.67 million is more than offset by the $58.27 million increase in reserves.
•
The total increase in Equity (Reserves and Surplus) can be attributed to a number of factors including the operating surplus of $0.60 million and the revaluation of infrastructure assets and property of $56.00 million. During the year an amount of $2.27 million (net) is budgeted to be transferred from accumulated surplus to asset replacement reserves. This reflects the sale of Council properties which will be set aside in the asset replacement reserves rather than be included within accumulated surplus. The sale of Council properties is partially offset by using the asset replacement reserves to fund part of the Capital Works program. These are transfers between equity balances only and do not impact on the total balance of equity.
7.2
Key assumptions
In preparing the Budgeted Balance Sheet for the year ending 30 June 2014 it was necessary to make a number of assumptions about assets, liabilities and equity balances. The key assumptions are as follows: • • • • • • • • • •
A total of 96% of total rates and charges raised will be collected in the 2013/14 year. This is consistent with the forecast actual for 2012/13. Trade creditors to be based on total capital and operating expenditure less written down value of assets sold, depreciation, amortisation and employee costs. Payment cycle is 30 days. Other debtors and creditors to remain consistent with 2012/13 levels. Proceeds from the sale of 3 property lots in 2012/13 of $1.22 million will be received in full in the 2013/14 financial year. Employee entitlements to be increased by the Enterprise Bargaining Agreement outcome. Repayment of loan principal to be $1.24 million. Total Capital Works asset program to be $59.25 million. A total of $2.27 million to be transferred from accumulated surplus to reserves. The Council will not be subject to any further unfunded superannuation liability calls in the budget year ending 30/06/2014. The Council will raise $30.07 million in loans for Capital Works. This total includes $2.57 million of loan borrowings for the 2012/13 financial year which have been deferred and actually be raised in 2013/14.

8. Strategic Resource Plan and Key Financial Indicators This section includes an extract of the adopted Strategic Resource Plan to provide information on the long term financial projections of the Council. 8.1
Strategic Resource Plan Development
The Act requires a Strategic Resource Plan to be prepared covering both financial and non-financial resources, and including key financial indicators for at least the next four financial years to support the Council Plan. Council has prepared a Strategic Resource Plan (SRP) for the four years 2013/14 to 2016/17 as part of its ongoing financial planning to assist in adopting a budget within a longer term framework. The SRP takes the strategic objectives and key directions as specified in the City Plan (Council Plan) and represents these in financial terms for the next four years. The key objective, which underlines the development of the SRP, is financial sustainability in the medium to long term. Banyule has and continues to achieve this with an eye to both VAGO and local government best practice guidelines. We are able to achieve Council’s strategic objectives as specified in the City Plan (Council Plan). Banyule has set its objectives and key directions in conjunction with extensive consultation and engagement with our community. The prudential management of our resources the probity of our processes and the responsiveness to our community is enshrined in the City plan and SRP. This four-year forecast outlines our financial strategies that support our service obligations, Capital Works aspirations and asset renewal objectives. The key financial assumptions, which underpin the SRP and our objectives, are: • • • • • • • •
The maintenance and continuous improvement of service levels in line with the Best Value principles. Modelling cost movements on a Consumer Price Index (CPI) range of 2 - 3% per annum over the ensuing four years. Setting fees and charges in line with CPI, market levels or as legislated. Critical appraisal of Council financial assets to ensure the best possible return on investment. Funds are allocated that support the increasing asset renewal pressures faced by Council Providing service levels in line with reasonable community service level expectations based on community consultation. That our four-year Financial Plan has been prepared to ensure an adequate amount is available for Capital Works Rate increases are set at fair and reasonable levels.
In preparing the SRP, Council has also been mindful of the need to comply with the following Principles of Sound Financial Management as contained in the Act: • • • •
Sound prudential management of financial risks relating to debt, assets and liabilities. Developing a rating strategy based on stability, equity, efficiency and transparency. Consideration of the financial effects of Council decisions on future generations. Full, accurate and timely disclosure of financial information.
The SRP is updated annually through a rigorous process of consultation with Council service providers followed by a detailed sensitivity analysis to achieve the key financial objectives and a review of community objectives.

A summary of key budget outcomes reflected in the SRP are as follows: •
Financial sustainability (section 5) - Cash and investments are budgeted to increase 30% over the four year period from $35.16 million to $43.93 million, which indicates a strong budget on a cash basis in each year.
•
Rating levels (section 9) – rate increases are budgeted over the four years ranging from 7.95% in 2013/14 down to 5.95% in 2016/17. An increase in municipal charge to $126.94 from 2013/14 to 2016/17 has also been factored into Council’s revenue stream and rating levels over coming years.
•
Service delivery strategy (section 10) – Service levels have been forecast to be maintained throughout the four year period. Specific focus areas are contained in the City Plan that deal with examining the efficiency and effectiveness of all services provided by Council. Banyule also operates under a whole of Council, externally certified, integrated business management system. This relates to national and international standards dealing with Quality, Environmental Management and OH&S. Banyule operates under an integrated planning framework for its key polices and strategies. All supporting plans inform and cascade through the organisation to inform resource decision allocation. Council utilises key demographic and research information along with broader community consultation to critically inform its resource allocation process.
•
Borrowing strategy (section 10) – Council has decided to take out $30.07 million in new loan borrowings to fund the capital work program in 2013/14 and is planning to reduce its debt from $60.57 in 2013/14 to $38.78 million in 2016/17.
•
Infrastructure strategy (section 10) - Capital expenditure over the four year period will total $134.66 million at an average of $33.67 million.

Underlying result/underlying revenue - Council's expected improvement in financial performance over the next four years, which indicates Council's significant reliance on rate revenue to maintain services and financial sustainability. 2. Rate revenue/Underlying revenue - Reflects extent of reliance on rate revenues to fund all Council's on-going services. Trend indicates Council will become more reliant on rate revenue compared to all other revenue sources. 3. Indebtedness/Rate revenue - Trend indicates Council's reducing reliance on debt against its annual rate revenue through redemption of long term debt.

Trend +/o/-
4. Current Assets/Current Liabilities – Working capital is forecast to remain at an acceptable level except for 2015/2016. This is due to the pending repayment of $16.54 million of loans in the 2016/2017 financial year. 5. Cash from Operating Activities/Capital outlays - Trend indicates Council expects to be able to service its Capital Works outlays from cash generated from operating activities, rather than relying on its existing cash reserves or further borrowings. 6. Asset renewal/Total depreciation - This percentage indicates the extent of Council's renewals against its depreciation charge (an indication of the decline in value of its existing capital assets). A percentage greater than 100 indicates Council is maintaining its existing assets, while a percentage less than 100 means its assets are deteriorating faster than they are being renewed and future capital expenditure will be required to renew assets. 8.4
Non-financial resources

9. Rating information This section contains information on Council’s past and foreshadowed rating levels along with Council's rating structure and the impact of changes in property valuation. 9.1
Rating Context
Council needs to examine its rating base and assess its adequacy in terms of the objectives and actions articulated in the City Plan and the demands expressed by the community for services and Capital Works initiatives. Rates are the largest source of revenue for Council and future rate levels form an important component of the medium (ie 4-years) to long-term financial planning (ie 10-years). Council has an established rating structure which is based on the Capital Improved Value method of rating. Council makes a distinction when raising rates, between the purpose for which the property is used, that is, whether the property is used for residential, commercial/industrial or other purposes. This distinction is based on the concept that effective use of land resources benefits the whole community. Each land holding should be developed for best use and make an equitable and efficient contribution to the provision of services and infrastructure provided by the Council. Businesses are also required to make an equitable contribution to rates taking into account the benefits those businesses derive from the local community. The benefits of cultural and recreational lands to our community must also be recognised by way of concessional rating. 9.2
Rating Strategy
The rating strategy until the 2012/13 financial year has comprised a number of differential rates and a rate concession for cultural and recreational lands. These rates have been structured in accordance with the differential rate requirements of Section 161 of the Local Government Act 1989. However, the Victorian Government recently introduced new Legislation after a review of differential rates and has developed Guidelines which Councils must consider when striking differential rates. The Guidelines require Councils to strike their differential rates based on tertiary level categories in the Australian Valuation Property Classification Codes. In doing so Council has also given consideration to the rating effort associated with Retirement Village Lands. Council has determined that it is not necessary to have a lower rate in a dollar in respect of Retirement Village Lands. Accordingly, Banyule Council’s differential rating categories for 2013/14 financial year have had regard to and comply with these Guidelines. Whilst it is necessary to balance the importance of rate revenue as a funding source with community sensitivity to increases, Council must consider its responsibilities for maintaining high cost infrastructure assets. As Council is aware, there is a gap in renewal funding which is largely the result of assets depreciating annually at a greater rate than the level of renewal funding. The rating strategy is also important for Council to continue the delivery of vital services at required service levels, provide a responsive Capital Works Program, maintain infrastructure assets to appropriate engineering standards, service debt levels and avoid unsustainable operating deficits. It is important that the rating strategy is understood and transparent to the community so that they understand what outcomes Council proposes to deliver to the community.

General revaluations are undertaken every two-years. The current revaluation base date was effective from 1 January 2012. These property valuations were used from the 1 July 2012 (ie 2012/13 Financial Year) and will continue through to the 30 June 2014 (ie 2013/14 Financial Year). The next revaluation base date will be effective from 1 January 2014.

10. Other strategies This section sets out summaries of the strategies that have been developed and incorporated into the Strategic Resource Plan including borrowings, infrastructure and service delivery. 10.1
Borrowings
In the recent past, Council has borrowed to finance significant infrastructure projects. Since then Council has been in a phase of debt reduction (since June 2010). This has resulted in a reduction in debt servicing costs and has also meant that cash and investment reserves have been used as an alternative funding source to maintain a robust Capital Works program. Council reserves are now forecast to be $9.34 million at 30 June 2013. Further borrowings will be undertaken by Council in 2013/14 to fund major projects. A commensurate debt reduction strategy is also outlined in the strategic resource plan over the next four years to ensure our ongoing financial sustainability. For the 2013/14 year, Council has decided to take out new borrowings to fund the Capital Works programs and therefore, after taking out $30.07 million in new loans and making loan repayments of $5.34 million, (of which $1.24 million is principal), will increase its total borrowings to $60.57 million as at 30 June 2014. Moving forward from 2013/14, Council plans to move into a debt reduction phase, where by the end of the 2016/17 financial year our total borrowings will be paid down to $38.78 million. The following table sets out future proposed borrowings, based on the forecast financial position of Council as at 30 June 2013.

Infrastructure
The Council has developed an Infrastructure Strategy based on the knowledge provided from the various Asset Management Plans, which sets out the capital expenditure requirements of the Council for the next 10 years by class of asset and is a key input to the long term financial plan. It predicts infrastructure consumption, renewal needs and considers infrastructure needs to meet future community service expectations. These expectations are reassessed on an ongoing basis through extensive consultation and community engagement. Likewise Banyule utilises significant demographic and social research data along with industry benchmark measures to inform our decision making process. The Strategy has been developed through a rigorous process of consultation and evaluation. The key aspects of the process are as follows: • • • • •
Long term capital planning process which integrates with the Council Plan, Strategic Resource Plan and Annual Budget processes Identification of capital projects through the preparation of asset management plans Prioritisation of capital projects within classes on the basis of evaluation criteria Methodology for allocating annual funding to classes of capital projects Business Case template for officers to document capital project submissions.

A key objective of the Infrastructure Strategy is to maintain or renew Council’s existing assets at desired condition levels. If sufficient funds are not allocated to asset renewal then Council’s investment in those assets will reduce, along with the capacity to deliver services to the community. The graph below sets out the required and actual asset renewal over the life of the current SRP and the renewal backlog (the renewal backlog is when funding available is less than what is required for renewal within a set financial period):
At present, Council is able to fully fund asset renewal requirements identified in the Infrastructure Strategy. While the Infrastructure Strategy is endeavouring to provide a sufficient level of annual funding to meet ongoing asset renewal needs as the above graph indicates. In updating the Infrastructure Strategy for the 2013/14 year, the following influences have had a significant impact: • • • •
Reduction in the amount of cash and investment reserves to fund future capital expenditure programs Availability of Federal funding for upgrade of roads The enactment of the Road Management Act 2004 removing the defence of non-feasance on major assets such as roads New building regulations requiring all Child Care Centres to immediately upgrade to ensure compliance.

In addition to using cash generated from its annual operations, borrowings and external contributions such as government grants, Council has significant cash or investment reserves that are also used to fund a variety of capital projects. These reserves are either ‘statutory’ or ’discretionary’ cash reserves. Statutory reserves relate to cash and investments held by Council that must be expended on a specific purpose as directed by legislation or a funding body, and include contributions to car parking, public open space and recreation. Discretionary cash reserves relate to those cash and investment balances that have been set aside by Council and can be used at Council’s discretion, even though they may be earmarked for a specific purpose. 10.3
Service delivery
The key objectives in Council’s Strategic Resource Plan (referred to in Section 8.) which directly impact the future service delivery strategy are to maintain existing service levels and to maintain an operating result that remains breakeven or better for the next four years. The Rating Information (see Section 9.) also refers to a responsible rate increase in year 2013-14 to fund our services and our Capital Works program. With these key assumptions as a basis, a number of internal and external influences have been identified through discussions with management which will have a significant impact on the scope and level of services to be provided over the next four years. The general influences affecting all operating revenue and expenditure include the following:
Consumer Price Index Engineering Construction Index Rates and charges increases Government funding Statutory fees Investment returns
2013/14 % 2.50
2014/15 % 2.50
2015/16 % 2.50

8.08 1.94 3.07 -12.43
6.27 2.39 11.13 -14.19
As well as the general influences, there are also a number of specific influences which relate directly to service areas or activities. • •
Council is introducing a major change initiative with the introduction of an electronic document records management system. As such, a significant operational risk is to be managed to ensure ongoing records and data management of Council’s valuable information. A price movement index prepared by the Municipal Association of Victoria (MAV) has shown that for some Council's services such as food supplies for meals on wheels and road construction costs have increased significantly above the CPI.

The State Government’s landfill levy will increase by 10% in 2013/14 from $48.40 to $53.20 per tonne of waste disposal which increases the cost to Council for disposal of waste into landfill. The levy has increased from $9 per tonne in 2008/09 to $53.20 per tonne in 2013/14. Street Light replacement is planned to occur over the next two financial years. More energy efficient lights will be procured which will assist in the reduction of Council's annual energy power costs, estimated to start at around $300,000 per annum. The savings in energy cost will repay the initial outlay for upgrading the lighting in approximately 15 years. A further significant benefit will be environmental improvement due to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions estimated to be a 19% reduction. Council intends to undertake a significant land purchase program of old school sites in an effort to retain community use facilities lost through the closure of several school sites in Banyule. A stormwater harvesting project is currently underway at three sites being Kalparrin Gardens, Chelsworth Park and DeWinton Reserve. It is anticipated that 138 million litres of storm water will be harvested from these sites which represents approximately $300,000 worth of portable water. This water will be used to irrigate 40% of Council's active open space including Ivanhoe Golf course. Significant environmental benefits will also result from this project. The workcover premium is projected to reduce slightly in 2013/14 due to Council's sound claims experience in recent years. A health and wellbeing strategy has been implemented and focusses upon areas in the work place where the incidence of injury based on past statistics have occurred. Council has also endeavoured to return staff to active duty as soon as possible after an injury has occurred. Insurance premiums are likely to increase in coming years due to numerous natural disasters that have occurred both in Australia and around the world, costing hundreds and millions of dollars. In particular substantial deterioration in claims performance over the last twelve months will put upward pressure on Council contributions to the liability mutual insurance scheme operated by the MAV. Ivanhoe aquatic centre is undergoing a significant renovation which will impact the service provision in the 2013/14. To minimise user impacts a work-around will be put in place, however, a significant operational risk to attendance numbers remains. Generally service levels across the board have been budgeted to be maintained at 2012/13 levels or varied with changes in government funding, contractual arrangements, legal obligations or operational budget transfers resulting from new budget initiatives.
The service delivery outcomes measured in financial terms are shown in the following table.
Year 2012/13 2013/14 2014/15 2015/16 2016/17
Surplus (Deficit) for the year $’000 650 597 3,202 6,050 5,699
Underlying Surplus (Deficit) $’000 (3,771) (1,759) 3,122 6,050 5,699
Net Service (Cost) $’000 (76,050) (78,081) (84,997) (87,165) (91,794)
Service levels have been maintained throughout the four year period with increasing operating surpluses budgeted from 2012/13 to 2016/17. Excluding the effects of non-operating items such as capital grants, the underlying result is a reducing deficit from 2012/13 to 2013/14 becoming a surplus from 2014/15 onwards. The net cost of the services provided to the community increase from $76.05 million to $91.79 million over the four year period.

Notes and Glossary of Terms: •
CSI – Community satisfaction index scores measured by Victorian Local Government Community Satisfaction Survey (CSS), co-ordinated by the Department of Planning and Community Development (DPCD)
•
Inner Group:- Inner Melbourne Metropolitan Group (Inner Group) of councils
•
Banyule’s CSI indicators and targets are based on ‘performance’ measures. Community Satisfaction Index (CSI) scores are commonly used in the market research industry to represent the extent of customer satisfaction.
•
The indicators are reviewed on an ongoing basis to ensure continued alignment with Council’s objectives and priorities, and are subject to change. They are also reviewed in line with Banyule’s ongoing planning process, and through Banyule’s involvement with the Department of Planning and Community Development’s (DPCD) process to develop a reporting framework for the local government sector.
•
* Indicator 1.1B (‘Attendance at Council provided aquatic centres’ indicator) - this target has been capped to 1,200,000 as the Ivanhoe Aquatic centre will be closed for renovations during the financial year. These figures are now inclusive of Watermarc and Macleod Leisure Centre.
•
* Indicators 4.1D, 4.4D and 5.3F (‘Visits to website’ indicator) – the target is listed as ‘Base to be determined’ given that our new website is being developed.
