municipal charge). The average municipal charge for the benchmarked councils was $204.

In addition to the proposal of implementing a municipal charge, Council also carefully considered the various rating categories and the current rating differentials as they were applied and considered whether the imposition of the current rating differentials were equitable and justified in light of current circumstances. A high level summary of the 5 rate model proposals are presented in the following table;

Current Rates Rate Model proposals Strategy Proposal 2 Proposal 3 Proposal 4 Proposal 5 Is a Municipal Charge proposed? No Yes Yes Yes No Municipal Charge Amount $0.00 $77.00 $153.97 $307.94 $0.00 Are rate differentials proposed to be altered? NoNoNoNoYes

Rating differentials proposed to be altered - Farm Rate No Change No Change No Change No Change from 0.8 to 0.6 - Extractive Industry Rate No Change No Change No Change No Change from 3.2 to 2.4 Page 6 The Moorabool News – 13 May, 2014 - Vacant land Commercial / Industrial No ChangeEmail No - Change [email protected] No Change No Change from 2.6 to 2.4 - Vacant land RZ1 / RZ2 No Change No Change No Change No Change from 2.5 to 2.4 News - General Rate No Change No Change No Change No Change No Change - Vacant Land - General No Change No Change No Change No Change No Change - Vacant land FZ or RCZ No Change No Change No Change No Change No Change - Commercial / Industrial No Change No Change No Change No Change No Change - Residential Retirement No Change No Change No Change No Change No Change

Farms will disappearFinancial Impact of the Rate Model Proposals under The following table shows the average rates and charges by rate category that would be incurred under each of the rate model proposals as compared to the current level of rates. The table demonstrated the financial trade off that occurs either by way of progressively implementing a municipal charge current rate(proposals 2, 3 strategyand 4) or by lowering the rating differentials for certain categories (proposal 5). The information as presented did not include any provision for rate increases that would possibly occur as part of MOORABOOL farmers Chris and they said it was up to the council Agenda - Mooraboolthe 2014/15 Shire Ordinary budget.
