Councillors met this week to consider public submissions on the 2019/20 draft budget and strategic resource plan.
The meeting on Wednesday night followed a four-week period of community consultation during which the public was invited to have their say on the draft budget.
The Council heard from two submitters who made verbal submissions in support of their written submissions on the budget.
The draft budget and strategic resource plan will be considered for adoption at a special meeting of Council to be held next Wednesday 26 June from 7pm at Ballarat Town Hall.
