INTRODUCTION

Leeton Shire Council presents to its community this document which provides detail on Year 2 of Council’s 4-year Delivery Program. The Delivery Program represents Council’s promise to the Community developed in response to the Community Strategic Plan “Leeton On The Go – Towards 2030”.

The 2018/19 Operational Plan and Budget sets out Council’s focus for the period 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2019. It details how resourcing will be applied to meet the community’s service expectations as well as Council’s various statutory obligations.

Council has received feedback from the community in relation to this Operational Plan and those suggestions and comments have been taken on board where practicable. One of the most significant changes includes the introduction of a sports specific subsidy schedule for the new approach Council is taking to more appropriately valuing and charging for community activity on Crown Land.

PLANS FOR 2018/19

This year’s program is more ambitious than previous years’ given the wonderful opportunity from NSW Government to advance some of our major projects through their Stronger Country Communities Funding stream. These projects include two stages of the CBD Enhancement Plan.

Council has also applied for Regional Sports Infrastructure Funding for the swimming pool.

Together these amount to $6M of investment in new major projects, with $4.6M coming from grant funding (with the Pool and CBD Stage 2

approvals still pending), $415,000 from loans and $250,000 from reserves (savings).

Greater investment is being proposed for new footpaths and drainage than previous years and similar investment to previous years in roads, parks and recreation, solid waste, sewer and water services. Council will also be completing the reticulated sewer services in Wamoon.

On a cultural front, Council plans to pursue significant grant funding to help undertake a full refurbishment of the Roxy Theatre and upgrade the Whitton Museum. We also propose to allocate funds towards the Pine Ave streetscape in anticipation of positioning Leeton as the Regional Art Deco Capital of Australia.

The total cost of all proposed capital works, a mix of new and upgrades, is $21.2 million. To fund these works Council is proposing to use a mixture of grants (51.5%), loans (4.7%), reserves (35.8%) and rates income (8%).

The NSW Government has also made $800,000 available for Sports Funding in the Shire and these funds, if approved, will be directed to the Show Ground Trust’s demolition and rebuild of an amenities block and grandstand. Estimated to cost $1.4M, this project is long overdue for this important sporting precinct in Leeton Shire. Additional grant funding will be sought but if a gap is left, provision has been made in the 18/19 Budget to loan the Showground Trust up to $200,000.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS

The NSW Government declared Leeton Shire Council Fit For The Future in late 2015 but it was conditional on us staying financially sustainable. We undertook to both catch up and stay abreast of our infrastructure backlog.

2017-2021 Delivery Program and 2018/2019 Operational Plan & Budget Summary - Page 6

Progress on this is measured via 7 ratios that are used as benchmarks for financial sustainability.

While currently Fit for the Future, this trend is due to turn. Our new capital works program will increase our depreciation and running costs over time. Council is going to have to find new revenue sources if it is to remain financially viable without reducing service levels.

Council carries very little debt and, where proposed works will benefit generations to come, borrowing funds is considered prudent so that the financial burden is shared intergenerationally. Council has ample capacity to take on and service more debt and to this end, will be borrowing $1 million to meet elements of the 2018/19 Operational Plan.

To find additional revenue, Council has also reviewed its fees and charges for 2018/19 to ensure direct recipients of services are paying a fairer share towards the costs of the services they use (with opportunities for subsidies where appropriate). Council’s management will also continue to undertake further internal service reviews and explore shared services to find efficiencies (although management has flagged that any efficiencies found will be needed for operational areas that are currently lagging such as asset management planning, property management services and business systems improvements).

Given the financial reality, Leeton Shire Council will later this year commence a serious conversation with the community about the need for a Special Rate Variation (SRV).

SUMMARY

In summary, Council’s operational budget for 2018/19 is steady but its capital budget is significantly increased. To achieve the capital program Council is anticipating a significant increase in grant income on the one hand and, on the other, reserves (savings) will reduce and loan repayments will increase relative to previous years from 1 July 2019.

Financially, Leeton Shire Council remains Fit for the Future for now but that course will change from 2019/20 as funds this year are being directed more heavily into new works (due to the available grant funding) more so than renewals.

It is an exciting time for Leeton Shire given the funding opportunities that have been made available to us but we need to proceed with eyes wide open.

Essential information about Leeton Shire Leeton Shire is a most innovative, inclusive and progressive places in inland Australia. Located in the Riverina 584km from Sydney, 470km from Melbourne and 371km from Canberra, Leeton is the birth place of the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area and was purposely built as part of the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Scheme.

Leeton is 1,167 square kilometres in size and includes the towns of Yanco and Whitton and the villages of Murrami and Wamoon. Leeton is the second largest regional centre in the Western Riverina region outside of Griffith and plays an integral role in value- added agricultural processing, agriculture, education and research, transport and logistics.

Leeton’s population in 2016 was 11,168 and is forecast to reach 12,528 by 2036. The age structure in Leeton Shire up until 2026 indicates that there will be a 11.7% increase in population under the working age, there will be a 26.3% increase in population retirement age and the greatest increase in Shire residents will be between the ages of 0-4 years.

Water is central to the Leeton Shire. The Murrumbidgee River and the Ramsar-listed Fivebough and Tuckerbil Wetlands play an important part in the local ecology. Up to 174 bird species have been recorded at the Wetlands during the warmer months, many of those being migratory birds from the northern hemisphere.

The Shire enjoys a strong economy with the Gross Regional Product valued at $527 million in 2016. There were 957 registered businesses in 2016, with the largest employment sectors being agriculture, fisheries and foresty, manufacturing, construction, and retail trade.

Leeton is renowned as the Heart of SunRice Country and is home to the SunRice headquarters. In 2014 rice contributed $148 million to the regional economy. In 2015, there were 4,000 tonnes of walnuts processed at Websters in Leeton. During 2015/16, 180,000 tonnes of citrus were processed. In 2017, around 500 head of cattle were processed a day at JBS Riverina Feedlot and after just six seasons, Southern Cotton ginned its 1 millionth cotton bale. Other major industries and companies include Lion Dairy and Drinks Co, Pacific Fresh, Freedom Foods, Celi Group, Milbrae Quarries, Murray Cod Australia, Murrumbidgee Irrigation, Lillypilly Estate Wines and Toorak Wines.

With a proud history in education services, Leeton boasts a TAFE and three major high schools, two of which are boarding schools which attract students from across south-west NSW and other states. There are six primary schools, a support school, two long day care centres, one pre-school and a number of family day care providers.

Facilities and services that support a wide cross section of the community include a range of quality sporting facilities, two aged care providers, a hospital, general practices and allied health services, and a range of clubs and service groups.

About this Delivery Program and Operational Plan Information contained within this document provides the Leeton Councillors and Community with detail about the Organisation’s promise to deliver services and facilities within the Local Government Area. It is the document against which all activities undertaken by the Council organisation will be measured with regular updates to the Council and Community through the quarterly reporting processes.

The 2017-2021 Delivery Program and 2018/2019 Operational Plan (DPOP) are key elements of the integrated planning and reporting framework which all Councils in New South Wales have a legislative obligation to adhere to. This framework aims to streamline a Council’s operations and optimise the use of resources. The strategies within the Delivery Program have a direct correlation to the Community Strategic Plan – Leeton on the Go – Towards 2030 (CSP) which was adopted by Council on behalf of the community in December 2016. This CSP was divided into six themes based on the community’s priority aspirations for the Shire. These themes and the 20 strategies which underpin them are:

A Healthy and Caring Community A community that focuses on being healthy A community that embraces lifelong learning A community that is friendly and inclusive A community that is safe to live in and move about A community that enjoys good housing

An Active and Enriched Community

A community that participates in sports and active leisure A community that enjoys arts and culture A community that values its heritage

A Healthy Natural Environment

A community that respects the natural environment A community that enjoys our natural environment

A Thriving Economy with Good Jobs A community that thrives on irrigated agriculture A community that is strong in business and

employment A community that has great attractions and events A community that enjoys a vibrant town centre

A Quality Built Environment

A community that has reliable water and sewerage services in towns A community that has good road, rail and air transport A community that enjoys attractive towns and parks

Strong Leadership

A community that has politicians who act and listen A community that speaks up and gets involved A community that is always on the front foot

How to read this Delivery Program and Operational Plan (DPOP)

This 2018-2022 Delivery Program and 2018-2019 Operational Plan (DPOP) is broken into six strategic and priority areas which were identified through the Community Strategic Plan (CSP). Each of the Theme or Priority Areas are represented by a main heading, as demonstrated by the reverse heading below. Throughout the document, these theme areas are also separated by colour as shown in the header of each table. Each of the Strategies are indicated by the headings with shaded backgrounds while specific DPOP actions are identified by the blue text headings. Performance measures for each of the DPOP actions, some of which have several, are prefaced by a number, eg. 1a.01. The document tables also provides detail on the annual activities, what the outcome of these activities will be, who is the responsible Council officer and an indication of when the activity will be undertaken.
