  • 7.5. Final Outcomes of 2020 General Valuation
    Council Meeting Agenda 24/08/2020 7.5 Final outcomes of 2020 General Valuation Abstract This report provides detailed information in relation to the 2020 general valuation of all rateable property and recommends a Council resolution to receive the 1 January 2020 General Valuation in accordance with section 7AF of the Valuation of Land Act 1960. The overall movement in property valuations is as follows: Site Value Capital Improved Net Annual Value Value 2019 Valuations $82,606,592,900 $112,931,834,000 $5,713,810,200 2020 Valuations $86,992,773,300 $116,769,664,000 $5,904,236,100 Change $4,386,180,400 $3,837,830,000 $190,425,800 % Difference 5.31% 3.40% 3.33% The level of value date is 1 January 2020 and the new valuation came into effect from 1 July 2020 and is being used for apportioning rates for the 2020/21 financial year. The general valuation impacts the distribution of rating liability across the municipality. It does not provide Council with any additional revenue. The distribution of rates is affected each general valuation by the movement in the various property classes. The important point from an equity consideration is that all properties must be valued at a common date (i.e. 1 January 2020), so that all are affected by the same market. Large shifts in an individual property’s rate liability only occurs when there are large movements either in the value of a property category (e.g. residential, office, shops, industrial) or the value of certain locations, which are outside the general movements in value across all categories or locations.

  • Casey City Council and Cardinia Shire Council
    Parliamentary Inquiry into Local Economic Development Initiatives in Victoria Joint Submission City of Casey Shire of Cardinia October, 2012 Parliamentary Inquiry into Local Economic Development Initiatives in Victoria – Joint Submission Executive Summary The City of Casey and Cardinia Shire Council joint submission to the Inquiry into Local Economic Development Initiatives in Victoria is primarily based on the need for targeted economic development policies and infrastructure funding that will unlock local economic development opportunities and jobs. The Casey-Cardinia region is experiencing rapid population growth. In 2010 Casey’s Urban Growth Boundary was expanded by an additional 5,000 hectares to support housing to accommodate an estimated forecast population of 450,500 people over the next 25 years. Cardinia, with 1,300 km2 of residential and rural land, is expected to experience the fastest growth rate in Victoria over the next decade, as residential land in Casey becomes scarce. The most important lessons local government takes from this rapid expansion are: • The role of key infrastructure in the Casey-Cardinia region. • The need to attract new businesses and the need to grow existing businesses, to provide more locally available jobs for the community. Currently, about 70% of residents leave the Casey-Cardinia region each day for work, creating considerable stress on transportation infrastructure as well as causing economic and social repercussions. The Casey-Cardinia region runs the risk of becoming a dormitory suburb of metropolitan Melbourne. The provision of transport infrastructure (e.g., trains, buses and roads) and services (e.g., high speed broadband and education facilities) are crucial to the social, economic and environmental development and wellbeing of the Casey-Cardinia region.
