“Council’s 2024/2025 Proposed Budget will continue to support key services our residents rely on and invest in some significant capital works projects, made possible thanks to the support of the State and Federal governments.

“This budget also demonstrates Council’s proven record of being fiscally responsible, with efforts to reduce costs resulting in a small surplus.”
