Annual Plan 2007 - 2008

What is it?

  • It contains the annual budget and funding impact statement for the 2007/2008 year.
  • It identifies and explains any variations from the annual budget and funding impact statement included in our Long-Term Council Community Plan 2006/2016 (LTCCP).

What does it look like?

  • The Annual Plan includes the variances between the budget for 2007/2008 as opposed to the budget set out in the LTCCP.
  • It includes budgets for the 2007/2008 financial year.
  • It includes a Funding Impact Statement which explains the revenue and financing mechanisms to be used to cover our estimated expenses in 2007/2008, essentially this means how we calculate the rates.

How does the Annual Plan affect you?

  • The planned projects for the next year will be paid for by rates, reserve funds, depreciation and other funding.
  • For 2007/2008, rates will be increasing by an average of 9% to pay for maintenance and capital work.
