Upper Lachlan Operational programme

As of the first of July, the Upper Lachlan Shire Council brings into effect its budget and intergrated plans.

 

The documents were adopted at the June 20th ordinary meeting of council and include delivery and workforce plans to 2022/23 and the operational plan for next financial year.

 

The long term financial and infrastructure plans consider developments until 2028.

 

In the twelve months there is ambitious captial expenditure totalling $14.2 million with substantial amounts for roads reconstruction and bridge replacement.

 

Water and sewerage main replacement and rehabilitation will attract almost a million dollars and street-scape programme implementation will cost $150,000.

 

There will be a 2.7% rise in general rates and increased charges for water, sewerage and waste management but ratepayers will pay no extra for stormwater annual charges.
