I am pleased to present Georges River Council’s Delivery Program and Operational Plan for 2020/21.
Message from the General Manager
This document supports the ongoing delivery of the Georges River Community Strategic Plan 2018-2028 (CSP), which identifies the priorities and aspirations of the community. The Delivery Program is now in the third year of its three year cycle, and contains a number of significant projects for Council in 2020/21, guided by the six pillars which address Council’s social, environmental, economic and civic leadership responsibilities. Over the next year we will continue to work with our neighbouring councils to deliver large scale infrastructure projects and work with the NSW Government, business and community groups to facilitate, coordinate and stimulate economic development opportunities in our Local Government Area. We recognise the need to position Georges River and the South District as critical to the future success of Sydney and will work on marketing our City to locals, visitors and investors, focusing on the potential of Kogarah and Hurstville as well as the vibrancy of our villages. During 2020/21, maintaining the natural environment is a key focus of Council and to this end we will develop and implement a Waste Education Program and educate the community on reducing energy consumption and protecting the environment. We will continue to work to ensure all public parks and open spaces are accessible, well maintained and managed to meet the recreational needs of current and future residents by implementing the recommendations in the 2020/21 Parks and Open Space Improvement Program. Our focus on strengthening customer service continues and we are committed to making it easier for our customers to do business with Council by creating systems and a culture that supports positive customer experiences. We will be working towards achieving the net zero emissions target by 2025 by following mitigation initiatives such as energy efficiency, renewable energy, carbon sequestration and changing staff behaviour. In order to strengthen Council’s financial position and achieve financial sustainability, we will continue to work on an application to the NSW Government (IPART) to introduce a Special Rate Variation (SRV) in order to create one consistent rating system by 1 July 2021 to ensure a fairer approach for all ratepayers.

About this document The Delivery Program and Operational Plan set out how we will deliver the goals and strategies of our inaugural Community Strategic Plan. These documents sit within the Integrated Planning and Reporting (IP&R) Framework that requires us to plan for and report on our ambitions, in consultation with our community (see Figure below). While the Community Strategic Plan is a longer-term representation of the community’s aspirations for the Georges River area, this document brings together: •
•
the Delivery Program, which is normally a four-year program, however, as Georges River Council is a newlyamalgamated Council, we have a three-year program to align with the council election cycle. We are now commencing the third year of this three year program. the Operational Plan, which illustrates Council actions in 2020/21.
We combined these documents to make it easier for everyone to understand our early priorities, and when we expect to commence work on our Delivery Program Actions.

RESOURCING STRATEGY Contains the Workforce Management Plan, Digital Resource Management Plan, Asset Management Plan and Long Term Financial Plan
PERPETUAL MONITORING AND REVIEW
Six pillars to shape our planning We used many opportunities and mechanisms during 2017 to understand the community’s issues and ambitions for the Georges River area, and from this, we identified six pillars that underpin our planning. These six pillars are:
1
A protected environment and green open spaces
2
Quality, well planned development
3
Active and accessible places and spaces
4
A diverse and productive economy
5
A harmonious and proud community with strong social services and infrastructure
6
Leadership and transparency
Where the Community Strategic Plan establishes higher level goals under each of the six pillars and the strategies that will help us all work together to reach these goals, the Delivery Program and Operational Plan translate these goals and strategies into actions that directly influence Council planning. In this respect, our Resourcing Strategy is the final cog in the Framework, setting out the time, money, people and assets that we’ll need to deliver the actions.

Georges River Council // Delivery Program 2018/19 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 2020/21 and Operational Plan 2020/21
Financial estimates About the 2020/21 Budget The Georges River community, along with the rest of Australia, is facing extraordinary challenges due to the current COVID-19 pandemic. Changes have been moving quickly and this is likely to impact our 2020/21 budget. Over the coming months Council will better understand the longer-term impact of COVID-19 on our community and on our operations. If major changes are required, these will be factored into the final adoption of the 2020/21 budget and/or quarterly reviews. In light of the current events, Council has prepared a budget ready to deliver valued community services, projects and programs during the 2020/21 financial year. Council plays a significant role within the community as demonstrated within the Operational Plan 2020/21, which includes Council’s operational and capital expenditure budget of $180 million. Key aspects of the budget include: • New or renewed community assets to the value of $40 million. Highlights include: » Construction of Penshurst Park Sporting Hub Stage 2 » Road Re-sheeting Program » Ormonde Parade Streetscape » Poulton Park Remediation » Hurstville Golf Course » Hurstville Oval Players Pavilion » Harold Fraser Oval (Parkside Drive) Waterway » Mortdale Town Centre Upgrade » Remediation of the former Oatley Bowling Club » Oatley Park Sporting Amenities » Playground and Building Critical Safety Program » Storm water Drainage Critical Program » Footpath Critical Safety Program • No reduction in grants or subsidies to community groups • Development of the Georges River Council Local Environmental Plan • Application of the 2.6% Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) approved rate peg increase to rate income • Application of Council hardship payment support options • Segregation of funds to ensure footpaths, playgrounds, building, roads, stormwater and other key assets are repaired and renewed. • No new loan borrowings
61
• Frozen employee costs budget and application of savings strategy • Reduction in consultancies through a greater investment in-house skills • Strict application of the pricing methodology to fees and charges with an aim of cost recovery • Residential Domestic Waste Management Charges harmonised • Depreciation increase due to the construction of new assets and rising cost of replacement • Continued obligation to repay the Mortdale Jubilee Community Centre external loan ($500,000 annual repayment from general revenue) • Election cost of $900,000 has been transferred to 2021/22 • Sale of commercial properties in line with the adopted Commercial Property Strategy will be pursued • Ongoing intention to implement productivity improvements and cost efficiencies identified in the draft IPART application
In preparing the draft 2020/21 Budget some difficult decisions have been required during this unpredictable time. Prior to the events of COVID-19, Council has an adopted forecasted operating deficit (before capital grants) for 2020/21 of $13 million. On 10 February 2020, Council considered whether to proceed with a Special Rate Variation (SRV) and Rate Harmonisation application. The SRV application was prepared to reduce Council’s operating deficit by $8 million. At the meeting, Council resolved to defer the SRV and Rate Harmonisation. Therefore, in order to minimise Council’s projected operating deficit, protect cash reserves and weather any adverse impact of COVID-19, programs, services and projects have been reduced, deferred or deleted. The approach to these decisions has been balanced, in that they have been made across all areas of Council’s operations, including employee costs, Councillor costs and community assets.
• Removal of staff benefits such as the all-staff conference, Learning and Development program and removal of the Christmas period grant days • Removal of the Councillor Discretionary Ward fund • Removal of the additional voluntary Pensioner Rebate • Deferral of capital projects such as the new skate park, public art program, synthetic fields program, San Souci Bathers Pavilion construction, Hurstville Civic Precinct development, etc). Based on this approach the adopted forecast deficit of $13 million has been reduced to a projected deficit of $2.4 million. The action to reduce Council’s adopted forecast operating deficit of $13 million, is to ensure Council’s financial position does not further deteriorate from potential impacts of COVID-19. It is essential that Council manage any potential adverse impacts on Council’s operating result and protect cash reserves, so they remain available to fund essential operational activities and services, if required. The draft budget and operational plan as considered by Council on 27 April 2020 was updated to include the additional expenditure relating to retaining the grant days and the cost of the community engagement for the rates harmonisation project. This has resulted in the draft operating deficit increasing to $3.2 million. Full details of Council’s 10 years Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP), which includes the new draft budget result, are outlined in the Resourcing Strategy.
In order to significantly reduce the adopted operating deficit and address financial sustainability, reductions include $9 million worth of operational programs project, services and $350 million in capital projects being deferred, reduced or deleted. Major items include: • Reduction in employee costs, i.e. no increase budgeted for the mandated annual Award increase, increased vacancy rate, extensions to vacancy holding periods

Potential Financial Impact - COVID-19 The proposed 2020/21 budget has not factored in impacts to income and expenditure of COVID-19 pandemic on key affected services. This decision is based critical factors being unknown, such as the scale of the financial impact, the length of time of government orders will stay in place and financial support packages required. Over the coming months Council will better understand the longer-term impact of COVID-19 on our community and on our operations. Therefore, if major changes are required, these will be factored into the final adoption of the 2020/21 budget and/or quarterly reviews. In light of the current issues and uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 Pandemic, council acknowledges the hardships that some individuals and companies may face in meeting rates, fees and charges. The economic support required to support residents and businesses will continue into 2020/21 as per Council’s adopted Debt Management and Hardship Policy. This includes: •
• • •
Deferral of commercial property rental income (leases and licences) without penalty interest accruing Deferral of community property rental income (leases) without penalty interest accruing Deferral of residential and business rates and charges without penalty interest accruing Introduction of payment plans for residential and business rates outside of statutory due dates without penalty interest accruing
In addition, regulations have been made under section 747B of the Local Government Act 1993 to temporarily modify the application of the Act in response to the COVID 19. These amendments provide assistance to Council in the management of fees and charges during this time. The table below highlights the key services affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and their 2020/21 budget. As highlighted the below budget has not factored the impact of COVID-19.

Rating and Revenue Policies Rating Structure Council’s rate revenue is regulated by the NSW Government and this arrangement is known as rate pegging. Rate pegging limits the amount that Council can increase its total annual rate revenue from one year to the next. In September 2019, the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) announced the 2020/21 rate peg at 2.6%. The rates for the 2020/21 financial year have been set in accordance (table below). Under current legislation, as an amalgamated Council, the two former council’s existing rating structures are required to be maintained until June 2021. This is called the “rates path freeze”. The rates path freeze does not restrict increases from the application of the annual rate peg. The former Hurstville Council’s rate path included Special Town Rates and an expiring Special Rate Variation. Council will continue to levy the Special Town improvement Rates to fund maintenance of car parking facilities, provision of safety and anti-litter services, promotional related activities and improvement/ beautification of the areas. The Special Rate Variation (Infrastructure Plus) has been in place since 2006/07 and will expire in 2021/22. This will result in a decline to Council’s Rate Revenue of $2.2 million. Funds from Infrastructure Plus have been used to fund costs associated with infrastructure maintenance and renewal.
Land Values Each year the annual rate revenue distribution is calculated based on a property’s latest valuation received from the NSW Valuer-General. Council cannot make and levy a rate in respect of a parcel of land unless furnished with a valuation of that land under the Valuation Land Act 1916 Every three years, the NSW Valuer General provides new land values for Council to use in calculating and distributing rates. For 2020/21 rating year, Council will be applying the new land values undertaken on 1 July 2019. Changes to land valuations will impact on the distribution of rates payable by individual households or businesses. Though, increases/decreases in land values do not necessarily lead to similar increases/decreases in rates, as land values are used to fairly distribute and calculate Councils annual rate revenue across ratepayers. Overall, land values decreased across NSW by 5.4% to $1.73 trillion in the 12 months to 1 July 2019.
Postponement of rates Where a property is used as a single dwelling but, due to zoning or permitted use has a land value that reflects the potential use rather than the actual use, we will provide a postponement of rates in accordance with section 591 of the LG Act. These postponed rates, together with the accrued interest, are abandoned after five years unless the use of the property changes; at that point the rates become payable 75
Non-rateability Council deems land to be non-rateable strictly in accordance with Sections 555 and 556 of the LG Act. â&#x20AC;&#x192;
Rate Structure Summary The following table provides a summary of the 2020/21 rates structure. It shows the number of rateable properties within each of the rating categories (and subcategory), listed according to those to be rated at the minimum amount, the rate in the dollar applicable to the category. 2020/21 Rate Structure

Debt Management and Hardship policy Pensioner rebate policy Holders of a Pensioner Concession Card who own and occupy a rateable property are eligible for a pensioner concession. The Local Government Act provides for a pension rebate of up to 50 per cent of the aggregated ordinary rates and domestic waste management service charges, to a maximum of $250. Under the State's mandatory Pensioner Concession Scheme, the State Government reimburses Council 55% of the rates and charges written off and Council funds the remaining 45%. Council has approximately 8,000 properties that receive a pensioner concession on their rates. Pensioner concessions are expected to total $2 million in 2020/21. The 55 per cent pensioner subsidy received from the NSW Government will amount to approximately $1.1 million.
Interest on Overdue Rates Council must set the interest payable on overdue rates and charges for 2020/21 in accordance with section 566(3) of the LG Act. Council will apply the maximum rate as set by the Minister for Local Government, for interest payable on overdue rates and charges. Interest accrues daily on rates and charges that remain unpaid after they become due and payable.
Hardship Assistance Council recognises that the current health crisis is causing financial hardship to many residents and businesses within our community. Council has a Debt Management and Hardship Policy to support the community during these unforeseen events. The following assistance options can be sought through an application to Council. • Extension of due date and interest free periods • Development of a payment plan, instalment plans or deferral plans • Waiving or reducing accrued interest For businesses renting the property and seeking rates relief– you will require your landlord to apply to Council for hardship assistance.
