Overview Opening Co mmentary fro m t he Mayor and Chief Executive Officer The Annual Business Plan sets out the Council ’s proposed serv ices, programs and projects f or the 2008/ 2009 f inanc ial year. It aims to maintain eff icient serv ices for the community and to undertake significant inf rastructure development f or the benefit of the region as a whole. Specific objectives f or the year are consistent with the strategies and actions discussed in Council ’s draf t Strategic Management Plan f or the period covering t he years 2008 to 2018. The new ten year plan is currently in draft f orm and has been released f or public comment during June 2008. The Public Consultation period wi ll cover the month of July 2008 with a report due back t o Counci l to adopt the plan in August. It is a comprehensive document which f ocuses on the big picture while placing due regard on core programs and t he phi losophy of place management. Strat egic Plan The central tenet of Council’s new strategic plan is to promote the opport unity for development and growth within t he region, not f or growth’s sake, but sust ainable development which adds value and qual ity inf rastructure to a region that has a unique blend of urban pursuit, industrial and commercial venture, and rural enterprise. The Plan has direct linkages into the South Australian St ate Strategic Plan and the work being undertaken by groups such as the Wakefield Group and the Barossa Regional Spatial Framework group of Councils, and reports such as the Wine Industry Impact Review. It talks about maintaining core serv ices but places a premium on the development of appropriat e infrastructure (such as Waste Water Treatment Plants) to manage to project ed residential, commercial and industrial development predict ed to occur within the Council region in the next few years. For example Counc il is already aware of the potential f or 1,000 residential al lotments coming on stream wit hin existing t ownship boundaries in the short to medium term. Development of 330 allotments has already commenced in the Freeling Township to the nort h and south of Hanson Street, while a f urther 60 al lotment subdiv ision is currently being developed at Greenock. Council has been one of the f astest growing Councils per head of population in South Australia for a number of years, with the trend set to continue going f orward. Council ’s Urban Planning strategy is central t o the plan as Counc il must maint ain appropriate controls to ensure proper developments occur. The plan places a f ocus on Council’s operational financial sustainabi lity (conservatively predicted to be achieved in the 2013/2014 f inancial year) but also establishes a definitive planned road inf rastructure f unding program. This program is built on the back of the Accelerated Roads Funding Program introduced in the 2007/ 2008 f inancial year, when Council recognized that t he qual ity of road inf rastruct ure was an issue f or its community and then t aking the bold step to f und (by borrowings ) those road works to the value $5. 0m over the 2007/2008 and 2008/ 2009 periods. Annual Objectives The 2008/2009 f inancial year looms as a particularly exciting one for the Light Regional Council wit h many and varied major outcomes expected. Council ’s Annual Business Planning process is an opportunity to reassess Counc il’s position relative to the needs of present and f uture communities within the Council area. These needs include, maintaining and improving the management of major inf rastruct ure assets, prov iding community support programs, maint aining and improving open space, improv ing the community ’s access to information, building a strong economy and maint aining our nat ural resources. A balance is required bet ween del ivering community outcomes and maintaining financial sustainability.


In particular the f inal adoption of the 2008 to 2018 Strategic Management Plan projecting Council ’s future direction will be a major highlight. The document is designed to be updat ed as needed. Aligned t o this is the adoption of the Infrastructure and Asset Management Plan. Council is keen t o maint ain its input into t he “Barossa Belt” Regional Spatial Plan being developed in conjunction with The Barossa, Gawler and Mallala Councils and State Government agencies. Input is also being prov ided by ot her neighbouring Councils. The plan is to highlight f uture development areas and to put appropriate strategies in place f rom both planning and infrastructure and assets management perspectives to ensure orderly development across t he entire region. Council ’s $4.0m road works program during 2008/ 2009 will see the final st age of the Accelerated Road Works Program completed, however the program sets t he stage for t he reinv igorated capital works program being considered as part of the new Strat egic Plan. Coupled with t he development of an Asset Rationalisation Fund (f or f uture funding of community projects), and the Federal Government f unded $6.0m upgrade of the Main North Road (in partnership wit h the Department f or Transport, Energy and Inf rastructure), places the f ocus f airly and squarely on better roads. The prov ision of new and upgraded public conveniences throughout the t owns of the region will also be a major f ocus this year. Rev iew and design of community facilities of f ered at Hewett and Kapunda (Dutton Park) f orm part of Counc il’s vision. Counci l is particularly keen to have the redevelopment of Freeling Main Street (on ground works) progressed and f inalised, after hav ing a substantial amount of grant funding provided f rom the State Government f or this project (undergrounding of power occurred in the 2007/2008 f inancial year). Planning will continue f or the undergrounding of power at Murray Street, Greenock. From an operational sense, Council will look to implement a ‘speedy’ development appl ication system f or new subdiv ision residential developments. Council resolved to increase revenue received f rom general rates by 7.5%, that is the annual cost of liv ing or Consumer Price Index f igure over the past t welve months (4.5% to the period ending 31 March 2008), and t he impact of assessment growt h through t he creation of newly rateable properties in the Light Region (2% t o 21 June 2008). An additional 1% general rate revenue will also be raised specif ically f or the purposes of funding inf rastructure projects. Council cannot reach its goals in isolation. We wil l also use our resources efficiently by collaborating wit h other sectors of the community and spheres of government t o maximise benef its f or our local community . We must f ind a balance in our decision making bet ween social, cultural, economic and env ironmental issues to ensure our region remains strong, now and in the f uture.

Robert Hornsey , Mayor Brian Carr, Chief Executive Of f icer


State Legislation Section 123 of the Local Government Act 1999 describes that Councils must do certain things when considering the issue of budgets:

• A counci l must have a Budget f or each f inanc ial year.

• Each budget must comply wit h standards and principles presc ribed by legislation and must be adopted af ter 31 May and bef ore 31 August f or the f inancial year.

• A counci l must prepare an Annual Business Plan which addresses the activ ities that the council intends t o undert ake in the ensuing year to achieve its objectives; and t he measures (f inancial and non-f inanc ial) that the council wil l use to assess its perf ormance against its objectives.

Legislation among other things requires Counci ls in t his Stat e to prov ide a great er emphasis on long term financial planning and infrastructure and asset management planning. Council wi ll have these plans in place during the 2008 calendar year. These requirements in particular will see an increased f ocus of resources by Counc il in the f orthcoming f inancial year when it finalises its Strat egic Plan covering the period 2008-2018.

Public Consultation Each Counc il must consult with t he public in relation to the strategy , content and impact of its Annual Business Plan and Budget documents. To this end Council undertook a period of public consultation wit h its community in relation to its Annual Business Plan. The period of public consult ation commenced in May 2008 f ollowing the publ ication of notices in newspapers circulating within the Council area. A publ ic meeting was held on Wednesday , 4 June 2008 where written and verbal submissions could be made by the community directly to the Counc il. The public consult ation period then f ormal ly concluded on Friday, 13 June 2008. Copies of the document were also placed on Counci l’s websit e at www.light.sa. gov .au and at Council’s off ices and libraries to enable ample opportunity f or members of the public to access the documents. A subsequent report and recommendations were present ed t o Counci l at its June 2008 mont hly meeting and at a special meeting on Tuesday , 24 June 2008. The Annual Business Plan and Budget was adopted at a special meeting of Council on Tuesday , 1 July 2008.


Glossary of Terms Asset Sustainability Ratio Asset Sustainability Ratio indicates whether the Counc il is renewing or replac ing existing non-f inancial assets at the same rat e as its overall stock of assets is wearing out. The ratio is calculated by measuring capital expendit ure on renewal and replacement of assets relative to the level of depreciation. Where a Council has a soundly based Infrastruct ure and Asset Management Plan, a more meaningful asset sust ainability ratio would be calculated by measuring the actual level of capital expendit ure on renewal and replacement of assets (or proposed in the Budget) with the optimal level identif ied in the Plan. Financi al Assets Financial Assets inc lude cash, investments, loans to community groups, receivables and prepayments, but excludes equity held in Counci l businesses. Also, inventories and land held f or resale are not regarded as financial assets. Financi al Sustainability Financial Sustainabil ity is where planned long-term service and inf rastructure levels and standards are met without unplanned and disruptive increases in rates or cuts to serv ices. An Independent Inquiry into the Financial Sust ainability of Local Government commiss ioned by the LGA identified Light Regional Council as category 6 – unsustainable. A six -fold categorisation of the sust ainability of a council’s long-term f inancial perf ormance and position was suggested by the Inquiry ’s independent adv isers: Category 1 – (> 15% operating surplus ratio) sustainable with a very subst antial margin of comf ort. Category 2 – (5% to 15% operating surplus ratio) sustainable with a substantial margin of comf ort. Category 3 – (0% to 5% operating surplus ratio) sust ainable with a moderate margin of comf ort. Category 4 – (0% to -71/ 2% operating def icit ratio) sust ainable wit h a minimum margin of comf ort Category 5 – (-71/2% to -10% operating def icit ratio) sustainable currently but vulnerable in the short- to medium term Category 6 – (< -10% operating deficit ratio) unsustainable. Local Government Price Index (LGPI) The LGPI is a reliable and independent measure of the inf lationary eff ect on price changes in the South Australian Local Government sector. It is developed by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) and updated quarterly. The index is similar in nature to the Consumer Price Index (CPI), however represents the movements of prices associat ed with the goods and serv ices consumed by local government in Sout h Australia as opposed to the basket of goods and serv ices consumed by the 'average metropolit an household'. Unlike the CPI however, the LGPI is not an "off icial" ABS publication. Net Financial Liabilities Net Financial Liabilities equals tot al liabil ities less financial assets, where financial assets for this purpose includes cash, investments, loans to community groups, receivables and prepayments, but excludes equity held in Council businesses, inventories and land held for resale. Net Financial Liabilities Ratio Net Financial Liabilities Ratio expresses Net Financial Liabil ities as a percentage of total operating revenue. The ratio allows interest ed parties to readi ly equate the outstanding level of the Council’s accumulated f inancial obligations against the level of one-year’s operating revenue. Where the ratio is f alling over time, it generally indicates that the Council ’s capac ity to meet its f inancial obligations is strengthening.


Net Lending/(Borrowing) Net Lending/(Borrowing) equals Operating Surplus/(Def icit), less net outlays on non-f inanc ial assets. The Net Lending/(Borrowing) result is a measure of the Council ’s overall (i.e. Operating and Capit al) budget on an accrual basis. Achieving a zero result on the Net Lending / (Borrowing) measure in any one year essential ly means t hat the Counc il has met all of its expenditure (bot h operating and capital) f rom the current year’s revenues. Non-financi al or Physical Assets Non-f inancial or Physical Assets mean inf rastruct ure, land, buildings, plant, equipment, f urniture and f ittings, library books and invent ories. Oper ating Defici t Operating Deficit is where operating revenues less operating expenses is negative and operating income is theref ore not suff icient to cover al l operating expenses. Oper ating Expenses Operating Expenses are operating expenses including depreciation but exc luding losses on disposal or revaluation of non-financial assets. Oper ating Revenues Operating Revenues are operating revenues shown in the Income Statement but exc lude prof it on disposal of non–f inancial assets and amounts received specif ically f or new/upgraded assets, eg. f rom a developer. For ratios calculat ed where the denominat or specif ied is total operating revenue or rate revenue, Natural Resource Management (NRM) levy revenue is excluded. Oper ating Surplus Operating Surplus is where operating revenues less operating expenses is positive and operating revenue is therefore suff icient to cover all operating expenses.

2008-2009 Annual Busi ness Plan 8

General Information Grants Commission Statistics From 1999/2000 until 2005/06 Council’s share of the annual South Aust ralian Local Government Grants Commission funds decreased. This trend changed in 2005/06 and since then has been slowly climbing although it has still not reached the level of funding which was received in the past (pre 2001). This means that Council’s access to revenue streams outside of the annual rates bill is limited and therefore places extra burden on the area’s reliance on council rates as its major source of income.

*1 – General grant is estimated based on the understandi ng that Council is now recei ving the mi nimum per capita grant, therefore as the population i ncreases so does the grant recei ved.

*2 – Esti mated share of the extra road funding allocated to South Australia ($26.25m) by the Federal Government over the three year period commencing 2004/2005. Program extended for 4 years from 2007/2008 fi nanci al year.

*3 – Annual adj ustment of Council’s grant income was not known at the ti me of printi ng this document, notification will be received i n August 2008.

It is expected the General Purpose Grant, the Local Roads Grant and the Additional Local Road Funding will increase over the 2007/08 f inancial year f igures.

Assessment of 2007/08 Financial Year Objectives In accordance with Clause 2 of Schedule 4 to the Local Government Act 1999, Council is required to measure its performance against the implementation of those activ ities by way of both f inancial or non-f inancial performance indicators and report on that performance outcome as part of its Annual Report to its constituency.

Council highlighted during the preparation of its 2007/2008 Annual Business Plan various activ ities by which it intended to measure its performance for the year.

There are a number of activ ities to measure which will be shown in the Annual Report by way of performance targets and classif ied as follows:

• ‘Reviewed & deferred’ – Determined as not being required to be completed following

budget review or in preparation of the 2007/2008 Annual Budget due to other emerging priorities.

• ‘Actioned’ – Determined to be an approved carried forward project – a project not

expected to be completed during the target year due to resourcing constraints or other emerging priorities.

• ‘Commenced’ – Project has commenced and reached a stage of development with

Council or appropriate policy committee.

• ‘Substantially Completed’ – Project has commenced and reached a stage of substantial development (>75%) with Council or appropriate policy committee.

• ‘Completed as Planned’ – Project has reached def ined objective.

• ‘Exceeded Target’ - Project exceeds target set.

The activ ities to be measured are il lustrated in the following document titled ‘2007/08 Annual Statement’.

Financial Requirements and Summary of Financial Statements Council ’s estimated operating income and ex penditure for the 2008/09 f inanc ial year is identif ied in t he f ollowing graphs. Council rates and separate c harges f or this f inancial y ear are estimat ed to be $10. 4M. To obta in this level of f unding Counci l will need to increas e its general rate income by an inf lation f actor (4. 5%), acc ount for new ass essment growt h (2.0%) and rais e an ext ra 1% general rat e revenue (to be s pecif ically f or inf rastructure purposes ), a total of 7.5% over the 2007/08 financial y ear. Loan borrowings of approximate ly $4.9M are proposed. This figure includes a strat egic borrowing t o complet e the $5M accelerated c apit al road works program which began in 2007/ 08 and is v alued at $2.5M in 2008/ 09. Counc il undertook th is program to remedy a sign if icant backlog of inf rastructure works and provide the com munity with a proactiv e means of improv ing its inf rastructure and reducing immediate road and storm water maintenance costs. C ouncil is aware that there wi ll be ef f ects on its operating ba lances f or ensuing y ears f rom the repayment of loans; howev er its be lief is that these eff ects will be compens ated by the deliv ery of other opport unities resulting f rom developmenta l growth and the rev iew of Council ’s own ass ets. Council has been m aintaining an operating def icit f or many y ears. This means that not enough revenue is earned to cov er ex pendit ure (including depreciation) and theref ore creat es reliance on receiv ing grants and other forms of inc om e to cov er maint enance of inf rastruct ure etc. This ‘ot her income’ is normally not suff icient and leads to maint enance of inf rastructure being def erred. Long term, as part of its f orward strategy , Council plans to remove the operating def icit and bec ome sustainable through its own rev enue. In Council ’s long-t erm f inancial plan it is evident that the operating deficit will be aff ected by the repay ment of loans but it also identif ies a signif icant reduction to this operating deficit up to the end of 2012/13 when it becomes an operating s urplus. The figures in the plan are cons erv ative and it is expected by introducing ot her in itiatives the operating balanc e will be in surp lus by Counci l’s target y ear of 2011/12.

BUDGETED UNIFORM PRESENTATION OF FINANCES


Rating Structure and Policy Strategi c Focus In proposing its rates f or the 2008/2009 f inanc ial y ear Council wi ll consider its Ten Year Strat egic Management Plan 2008 to 2018, the current economic climate, specif ic issues f aced by the comm unity , the budget for the 2008/2009 f inancial year and the im pact of rates on the comm unity – in partic ular householders and primary producers.

The ‘Light Regional Council Rating R ev iew Adv isory Committee’, a Section 41 committee of Council, has continued to aid C ounci l, wit h the rev iew of rating and valuation data and f ormulating recommendations to Counci l in regard t o setting rates for t he year. An im portant part of the C ommittee’s structure is its m embers hip whic h comprises both Counci l nominated represent ativ es and community repres ent ativ es f rom the public arena.

Land us e cat egories as prov ided in the Loc al Government (General ) R egulations 1999 are used as the basis of Council’s general rate c alculation.

Method used to value land All land wit hin a council area, except f or land s pec if ically exempt (eg. crown land, counci l occupied land), is rat eable. Council has decided to c ontinue t o us e capita l v alue as t he basis f or v aluing land within the counci l area. Counci l considers t hat this met hod of v aluing land prov ides the f airest method of distributing the rat es across al l rat epay ers. Council will be adopting t he v aluations made by the Valuer-General and whic h are applicable f or the f inancial y ear comm enc ing 1 July 2008. If a property owner is diss atisfied with a property valuation, then an objection may be made t o the Valuer-General in wr iting, within 60 day s of receiving notice of the valuation, explaining the basis for the ob jection. Furt her contact details can be obtained from Counc il’s Rates Ass essm ent Of f icers on telephone (08) 8525 3200. It is important to note that Council has no role in the v aluation process. Impact of Rates The f ollowing dat a provides inform ation in regard to rate m odel ling done f or the f ormulation of this Annual Business Plan and Budget.

Differ ential General Rates Every resident benef its in some part from the general amenity of the council area, whet her that is at the pres ent time or in t he f uture. The amenity includes the loc al ec onomy , genera l council operations and the ability to use council f acilities.

It is acknowledged that the sy stem of council rat es is in essence a sy stem of taxation against property prescribed through the prov isions of the Loc al Gov ernment Act 1999. In addition Council raises incom e by way of separate c harges f or t he Ref use Collection and Community Wastewater Management Sy stems, and acts as a c ollection agent of behalf of the Stat e Gov ernm ent in regard to t he c ollection of income f or t he N atural Res ource Management Boards. In the 2008/2009 Budget Counc il proposes to rais e t otal rat e related rev enue of $10,455,350 in a total operating revenue budget of $13,515,211. Land Use is used as the factor to apply diff erential rates. If a ratepay er believ es that a particu lar property has been wrongly classif ied by the C ouncil as to its land use, then t hey may object (to Counc il) to that land use within 60 day s of being notified. A ratepay er m ay discuss the matter with C ouncil ’s Rates Assessment Off icers, on (08) 8525 3200 in the f irst instanc e. Objections may be lodged to land use attributed to property for the purpos es of raising council rates. C ouncil wi ll t hen undertak e a system of rev iew. Minimum Rate A Counci l may impos e a minimum amount payable by way of rates, prov ided that it has not imposed a f ixed charge. Where two or m ore adjoining properties hav e the same owner and are occupied by the sam e occupier, only one min imum rate is pay able by the rat epay er. Where a Council imposes a m inimum rate it m ust not apply to more than 35% of properties in the Council area. In 2008/2009 Counc il propos es to impose a m inimum rate of $600 which aff ected 1,274 (18%) rat eable properties. Counci l considers it appropriate t hat a ll rat eable properties make a bas e lev el c ontr ibution to the cost of admin ister ing Council’s activ ities and to t he cost of creating and maintaining the phy sical inf rastructure that supports eac h property .

Natur al Resource Management Board Levi es Council is loc ated with in the boundar ies of three N atural R es ourc e Management Board areas; however Counc il is only required to fund the operations of the Adelaide and Mount Lofty Ranges Nat ural Res ource Management Board and the N orthern and Y ork e Penins ula Natura l Resourc es Management Board. Contributions are sought in 2008/ 2009 tot alling $135,310 (Adelaide and Mount Lof ty) and $95,960 (Northern and Yorke). A map of the catchm ent areas s howing t hos e properties wit hin the boundary is on dis play at Council ’s of f ices. Council is operating as a revenue c ollector for the Nat ural R esource Managem ent Boards in t his regard. It does not ret ain this rev enue or determine how the revenue is spent. Ser vice Charges Council prov ides a C ommunity W astewater Management System to residential and comm ercial properties in Kapunda, Freel ing, Greenock and Roseworthy . The full cost of operating and m aintaining this s erv ice f or the 2007/08 f inancial year was budgeted to be $6,661,610, whic h includes major capita l works at the Kapunda, Freel ing and Greenock schemes. C ouncil recov ered this c ost through v arious m eans including the imposition of a serv ice charge of $368 per unit f or each property f or which t he serv ice is av ailable. Where the serv ice is prov ided t o non-rat eable land, a serv ice charge is lev ied against the land.

The Council a lso prov ides a ref use c ollection service inc lusiv e of recycling collections wit hin the t owns hips of Kapunda, Freeling, Hewett, Greenock, Roseworthy and Wasley s. The serv ice is also prov ided to those ratepay ers in Council’s area that are able to access the serv ice along the des ignat ed collection routes. The f ull cost of operating and maintaining this serv ice f or 2008/ 2009 is budget ed to be $934, 260. Counc il proposes to recov er t his c ost through the impost of a serv ice charge of $209.80 f or each property f or whic h the service is utilis ed (inclusiv e of green organics collection); and t hrough the im post of a service c harge of $140. 75 f or eac h property f or which the serv ice is utilised (exclus iv e of green organics collection). Where the s erv ice is provided t o non-rateable land, a s erv ice c harge is lev ied against the land.


Rate Concessions The State Government f unds (and admin isters) a v ariety of concess ions on Council rat es. Eligib le pensioners may be entitled to a rebate on Council rates, wat er rates and CW MS (f ormerly STEDS) charges where appl icable. Appl ication f orms, whic h include inf ormation on the c onc essions, are av ailable f rom C ouncil’s off ices, or by telephoning Council’s Rat es Assessment Off icers, on (08) 8525 3200. C onc essions are on ly av ailable on the principa l plac e of residence. Self Funded Retiree Concession This conc ession has been av ailable f rom 1 July 2001 and is administ ered by Rev enue SA. A self -f unded retiree, currently holding a St ate Seniors Card, may be eligib le f or a concession toward Council R ates.

Further information c an be obt ained f rom the Rev enue SA Call Centre on 1300 366 150. Unemployed Persons Concessions The Departm ent of Families and Communities m ay assist with the payment of Counc il rat es f or a principal plac e of residence (remissions are not availab le on v acant land or renta l premises). Pleas e c ontact y our nearest Department of Family and Communities of fice for deta ils. Payment of Rates Under Section 181 of the Local Gov ernm ent Act 1999, Council m ust prov ide the opportunity f or all ratepayers to pay rates by quarterly instalm ents. Council pay ment dates in the 2008/ 2009 f inancial y ear will be 12 Sept ember 2008, 12 Dec ember 2008, 13 Marc h 2009 and 12 June 2009. Late Payment of Rates The Loc al Government Act 1999 provides t hat C ouncils impose an initial penalty of 2% on any pay ment for rates, whether by instalment or otherwis e, that is receiv ed late. A payment that continues t o be late is then charged an interest rat e, set each year acc ord ing to a f orm ula in the Act, f or eac h m onth it continues to be late. Counci l al lows a f urther three working days af ter the due dat e f or payment as a grace period. Thereaf ter late pay ment penalties are applied in acc ordance with the Loc al Gov ernm ent Act 1999. Council issues a final notice f or pay ment of rates when rates are ov erdue i.e. unpaid by the due date. Should rates rem ain unpaid m ore than 21 day s af ter the issue of the final notice then the Council will ref er the debt to t heir debt col lection agency f or collection. The debt collection agency charges co llection f ees that are rec ov erable f rom the ratepay er. Al l costs incurred by Counci l in the recovery of outstanding rates and fines are pay able by the ratepayer. When Counc il receiv es a payment in res pect of ov erdue rat es, Council appl ies the money receiv ed as f ollows:

firstly – in pay ment of any costs awarded to, or rec ov erable by , the Counci l in any court proc eedings undertak en by the Council f or the rec overy of the rat es;

secondly – in s atisf action f or any liabil ity for interest; thirdly – in pay ment of any f ine; fourthly – in satisf action of liabi lities f or rates in the order in whic h thos e liabilities

arose in payment of rates, in date order of the ir imposition (starting with the o ldest account f irst).

Remission and Postponement o f Rates Post pone ment or Rates - Hardship Section 182 of the Local Government Act 1999 permits Council, on the appl ication of the ratepayer, t o partial ly or wholly remit rates or to postpone rates, on the basis of hards hip. Where a rat epay er is suff ering hards hip in paying rates they are inv ited to c ont act Council’s Rates Assessment Officers, on (08) 8525 3200 to d iscuss t he matt er. Suc h enquiries are treat ed conf identially by Council.


Seniors Rat e Postponement Section 182A of the Loc al Government Act prov ides t he option f or State Senior C ard holders to apply to post pone part of their counci l rates on a long term basis. The def erred amount is subject to monthly int erest c harge, with the acc rued debt being pay able on the disposal or sale of the property. Postponement is similar to a rev erse mortgage by rely ing on the equity in the property . A ratepay er who has a St ate Seniors Card may apply for postponem ent of a portion of the c ounci l rates pay able on property they own if it is thei r principal place of residence and if no other person other than their spous e has an interest as owner of the property and there is appropriate equity in the property. Further information c an be obtained f rom Council’s R ates Assess ment Of f icers on telephone (08) 8525 3200. Rebate o f Rates The Loc al Government Act 1999 requi res Councils t o rebat e the rates pay able for certain land uses. This includes 100% rate rebates granted on Places of W orship, Public Cemeteries, Hospitals and land occupied by Univ ers ities, and 75% rate rebates hav e been granted on Educational f acilities (subject to some qual if ications). Discretionary rebates may be applied by the Counci l under Section 166 of the Act. Counci l annually considers m any applications for rat e rebates and has in the past, and is again for the 2008/ 2009 f inancial y ear, proposing to rebat e rates c harged to var ious dist rict com munity and sporting organis ations. Sal e of Land for Non-Payment of Council Rates The Local Governm ent Act 1999 provides that a C ouncil m ay sell any property where the rates hav e been in arrears f or three years or m ore. The C ouncil is required to notif y the principal ratepay er and the owner (if not the sam e person) of the land of its intention to sel l the land and prov ide the owner with det ails of the outstanding amounts. If pay ment of the outstanding amount is not receiv ed within one m ont h the property may be sold. Except in extraordinary circumstanc es, the Counci l enf orces the sale of land for arrears of rates. Disclai mer A rate cannot be chal lenged on t he basis of non-compliance with t his policy and m ust be paid in acc ordance wit h the required payment prov isions.

Asset Sustainability Ratio

2008/0 9 A nn ual Busin ess Plan 45

Comment ary on Financial Impacts Council ’s def icit in 2008/09 is the result of operating expenses of $15.1m f unded by operating income of $13.5m. Furt herm ore, rate rev enue budgeted was to the value of approximately $10.4m. Council ’s balance s heet d isplay ed net assets of approx imat ely $74m which included capital works of $11. 4m funded by a combination of rate rev enue, developer contributions and loan f unds. Council budgeted to c ontinue with an acc elerated capital road works program to the v alue of $2. 5 mi llion in addition to its regular annual capital works program, to address t he sev ere deterioration of its road network. The acceleration program was comm enc ed with t he allocation of $2.5m spent in the 2007/2008 f inancia l year. Council also budgeted to borrow $1.5 million f or its regular annual capital works program and approxim ately $0.9m for the Community Waste water Management Sy stems. Comment ary on Financial Indicat ors Indic ators 1 and 2 - Council will meet its target reduction to the operating def icit in 2008/09. Net reduction of the operating def icit is approx imately $360,000 when compared to the revised 2007/ 08 f igure. Council theref ore remains on track to meet its long term goal of achieving a zero operating s urplus by 30 June 2012. Operating Surplus Ratio is reduc ed to -15.09%. Indic ators 3 and 4 - Net Financial Liabilities shows an am ount of approximat ely $14.2 million. This equates to a N et Financial Liab ilities Ratio of 105.17% which ess entially is due to a continued reliance on increas ed loan borrowings to undertak e the accelerated capital works program on Council’s roads and build upgraded Com munity W astewater Managem ent Systems at Kapunda, Freel ing and Greenock. Furt hermore, Council has budget ed to us e a large am ount of its f inancial assets (reserve f unds and s urplus cash holdings ) to carry out its operating and capita l ex penditure, a lso aff ecting t his indic ator. The ind icat or is s lightly above the target set by the Audit C ommitt ee of being equal to or less than the value of operating revenue. Indic ator 5, I nterest Cov er R atio, shows t hat Council has budget ed to us e 3. 17% of its operating rev enue (less inv estment income and commerc ial activ ities income) in pay ing interest on its loans. The target set by Council’s Audit Com mittee f or this indicator is less than 10% of the operating rev enue, whic h is comf ortably achieved. Asset Sustainability Ratio, which is indic ator 6, s hows that Counci l has budgeted to outlay an amount on renewing and replacing assets, whic h is 2.93 tim es that of its annual budget ed depreciation of $3.88 mil lion. The target set by Council’s Audit Committee was that Council outlay an amount equal to or better t han the rate of annual depreciation and in the short t erm this ratio be increas ed by 10% per annum. Council ’s 2008/2009 budget ac hiev es this comf ortab ly .

It is proposed tocontinue with increased training budget allocation to maintain theelected members knowledge base in regard to current issuesaffecting the local government sector.A number of conferences are arranged during the year, relevant toCouncil’s operation. It is considered essential that a budgetprovision be made for the registration and associated costs ofmembers attending these functions which include:

The fact is that the members are spending an ever increasingamount of time attending Council, Committee and DevelopmentAssessment Panel meetings throughout the year. On average,members are attending 40 or more meetings per annum (over 50meetings in some cases), this does not take into account the timeneeded for the elected members to prepare for the meetingsconcerned. These are significant contributions to the Light Regionalcommunity and therefore should be recognised accordingly. Thebudget has therefore made an allowance to increase fees paid toMembers by 5%.

ITEM 16 REFERENCE 2008/09RATING AND PROPERTY TO SUMMARY

It is proposed that Councilcontinue to utilise the rating by Land Use Category method forraising its general rate. In addition to the general rate, Councilapplies charges for refuse disposal and CWMS under a separatecharge mechanism.

ITEM 46 REFERENCE 2008/09COMMUNITY WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS TO SUMMARY

Much of the district has soils which consist of heavy clays that are poorlydrained and make on site disposal of effluent very difficult. In an effort toremedy this problem and ensure effluent is disposed of in a sanitarymanner which does not create a threat to public health, Council hasinstalled Community Waste Water Management Systems (CWMS) in thetowns of Kapunda, Greenock, Freeling and Roseworthy. A CWMS relieson primary treatment of household sewerage in a septic tank installed inthe ratepayer’s property, the treated sewerage (effluent) runs into anetwork of gravity drains and/or rising mains, owned by Council andgenerally installed along road reserves. The effluent is fed into asecondary treatment system of lagoons.

Kapunda CWMS

The CWMS in Kapunda was installed in 1968 and was one of the firstCWMS installations in South Australia. The scheme currently hasapproximately 30 km of gravity drains mains, the majority of which areearthenware and subject to high maintenance costs. There are threepump stations in the town, one at the intersection of Blackwell St andChapel St which pumps effluent along a 300mm rising main to thegravity line on Crase St. One pump chamber is on Cameron St. Thispump station pumps effluent along a 550m rising main to the gravity linepump station pumps effluent along a 550m rising main to the gravity lineon Crase St. The third pump station is located on Perry Road, Kapundawhich was installed to service the Kapunda Estate. Secondary effluenttreatment is carried out by a series of 6 ponds located on Section 1404in the Hundred of Kapunda. Final use of effluent is achieved by acombination of evaporation, irrigation of the town oval, caravan park andgolf course.

Freeling CWMSThe CWMS in Freeling was installed in 1982. The scheme currently hasapproximately 8 km of gravity drains mains, all of which are UPVC andapproximately 8km of rising mains. There are five pump stations in thetown, one at the intersection of Church St and Kirchner St, FreelingRecreation Park adjacent to Hanson St., Gray St., Derby St. andFiddlewood Drive.

Secondary effluent treatment is carried out by a lagoon system locatedon Lot 102 Part Section 407 in the Hundred of Nuriootpa, final disposalis achieved by evaporation. Reclaimed water is utilised by a primaryproducer.

Greenock CWMS

The CWMS in Greenock was installed in 1985. The scheme currentlyhas approximately 5 km of gravity drains mains, all of which are UPVCand approximately 6km of rising mains. There are two pump stations inthe town, one of which is on Adelaide Road and pumps effluent to themain pumping chamber on George St. Secondary effluent treatment iscarried out by a lagoon system located on Section 151 in the Hundred ofNuriootpa, final disposal is achieved by evaporation and irrigation ofvines on adjacent land owned by Mr. Bevan Roenfeldt.


Roseworthy CWMSThe CWMS at Roseworthy was commissioned in January 1997. Thescheme currently has approximately 5 km of gravity drains mains whichare all new UPVC. Secondary effluent treatment is carried out by anaerobic waste water treatment plant located on Section 85 in theHundred of Mudla Wirra. Final disposal is achieved by irrigation onadjacent community land.

Fees and Charges set by Council Apart f rom the various sections of the Local Government Act 1999 specif ically relating to the raising of council rates and serv ice charges, from time to time the Council will have the need to set f ees and charges f or various serv ice prov isions carried out in accordance with the Act. These fees and charges can be imposed in accordance with section 188 of the Act.
