FINANCIAL INFORMATION Statement of Prospective Financial Information FINANCIAL INFORMATION Statement of prospective financial Information ..............................................................................................................1 Funding of operating expenditure....................................................................................................................................1 Funding impact statement .............................................................................................................................................10 Statement of Accounting Polices....................................................................................................................................26 STATEMENT OF PROSPECTIVE FINANCIAL INFORMATION The financial information contained within this Long Term Plan is prospective financial information which complies with the Financial Reporting Standard 42 (FRS42). FRS42 sets the principles and specifies minimum disclosures for the preparation and presentation of general purpose prospective financial information. The purpose of this financial information is to enable the public to participate in the decision making process as to the services that Waipā District Council (Council) will provide over the financial years 2021-31, and as an accountability mechanism for the community. The financial information may not be appropriate for purposes other than those described. In relation to the FRS42, the financial years 2021/22 to 2030/31 are considered to be ‘forecast years’ and based on future events, which are expected to occur. The actual results achieved for the financial years 2021-31 are likely to vary from the information presented and may vary depending upon the circumstances that arise during the period. The forecast financial information has been prepared in accordance with Council’s current policies which comply with the New Zealand International Financial Reporting Standards. Council is responsible for the prospective financial statements, including the appropriateness of the underlying assumptions and all other required disclosures. The Annual Plan budget for 2020/21 and/ or the Forecast values for the 2020/21 have been included in the forecasted statements, as presented in the 4 month report to 31 October 2020. The forecasted 2020/21 year, while based on the actual transactions occurring during the 2020/21 year, is still only a forecast as the financial year 2020/21 had not been completed by the time the forecast financial information was prepared. The prospective statements in the Long Term Plan were adopted by Waipa District Council on XX 2021 and takes effect from 1 July 2021. The Long Term Plan is formally reviewed and updated every three years. FUNDING OF OPERATING EXPENDITURE Section 100 of the Local Government Act 2002 requires councils to fund operating expenditure from operating revenue. The reasons for not fully funding selected operating expenses are detailed below: Infrastructural assets Document Set ID: 10533867 Version: 31, Version Date: 22/03/2021 The value of assets written off as a result of the renewal of infrastructural assets is not funded in the current or future years. The following group of activities are affected: Table 1: Infrastructural assets Group of Activities 2021/31 ($000) Transportation $1,022 Stormwater $215 Water Treatment and Supply $512 Wastewater Treatment and Disposal $410 These estimates were based on trends relating to asset write-offs over the preceding three years. Community services and facilities and support services Council does not fund depreciation on buildings and improvements where future renewals would be from community sources or through raising new debt. This type of facility is primarily community occupied, has a life in excess of 50 years and renewal would only occur if future generations so decided. The amount of depreciation not funded in 2021/22 is $858,273. We do not fully fund depreciation on computer software and hardware as Council is moving towards cloud-based software and leasing of hardware not funded in 2021/22 is $700,000. Forestry Council has an investment in forestry and we generate income from logging sales and expenditure to maintain and manage the forest. The income and expenditure do not necessarily match each year, with some years having higher sales than other years. To ensure that there is no-flow on impact to ratepayers this activity will be managed through a reserve account which over a number of years should show a surplus. Housing for the elderly Council has an investment in residential housing and we generate income from rent and expenditure to maintain and manage the properties. The income and expenditure do not necessarily match each year and to ensure that there is no flow-on impact to ratepayers this activity is managed through a reserve account to ensure that any rents collected are used for the benefit of the property. Operating surplus Council’s operating surplus is the result of income funding asset development, and various non-cash items such as revaluation gains, being included in the Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense in line with accounting requirements. Council only sets rates and fees and charges income to the levels needed to meet its operating costs. Any operating surpluses generally come from non-cash items; we budget for a general funds cash breakeven position. The Statement of Comprehensive Revenue and Expense also includes significant infrastructural revaluations which are non-cash items.

    BEFORE INDEPENDENT HEARING COMMISSIONERS APPOINTED BY WAIPA DISTRICT COUNCIL IN THE MATTER of the Resource Management Act 1991 (Act) AND IN THE MATTER of the hearing of applications by BBC Technologies Limited for Land Use Consent for a Rural Industry and Grass Ventures Limited for a Subdivision Consent at Lochiel Road, Rukuhia BETWEEN BBC TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED & GRASS VENTURES LIMITED Applicants AND WAIPA DISTRICT COUNCIL Consent Authority STATEMENT OF EVIDENCE OF GEOFF FURNISS ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANTS (Company evidence) Dated: 24 November 2020 - 1 - INTRODUCTION 1. My name is Geoff Furniss. I am the Chief Executive of BBC Technologies Limited (“BBC Technologies”). Scope of Evidence 2. My evidence will address the following matters: (a) Detail the history of BBC Technologies; (b) Set out who BBC Technologies is; and (c) Detail the reasons and need for the new location. BACKGROUND 3. BBC Technologies’ origins go back to 2000 when founder and local (Ohaupo) blueberry growers, my parents Greg and Alison Furniss, invented a blueberry grader and sorter which was then sold to other growers. 4. From the mid-1990’s, machine harvesting created a huge hand-sorting requirement, and the need for a colour sorter machine became apparent. After looking at expensive overseas options, my parents began working on colour sorter machines to meet their own requirements. The first solution, the Colour Sorter, went into development in 1996 and three years later the first sale was made to a US buyer. 5. Since then the export progress of the company has been fastpaced. BBC Technologies established and opened an office in the USA in 2003.

The purpose of a long term plan is to: . Describe the activities of Council; . Describe the community outcomes; . Provide integrated decision-making and co-ordination of the resources of Council; .

For the purposes of this document we have named our long term plan the 10-Year Plan 2018-28, and we generally refer to it as the 10-Year Plan. The 10-Year Plan sets the direction for the district and is formally reviewed and updated every three years. It describes the activities of Council and shows the whole picture of how the activities are managed, delivered and funded. This plan was adopted by Waipa District Council on 29 June 2018 and takes effect from 1 July 2018. Please note: Information relating to years 4-10 in the 10-Year Plan will be updated in 2021.
