  • 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.

  • Advisory. Research. Valuations. Projects
    charterkc.com.au ADVISORY. RESEARCH. VALUATIONS. PROJECTS. INTRODUCTION Melbourne continues to emerge as a city of international significance. It was ranked as the world’s most liveable city for seven consecutive years between 2011-2017 and was ranked second in 2018 and 2019. Melbourne contains two universities ranked in the top 100 global universities. Victoria, the second-largest economy in Australia, contracted by -0.5% over FY 19/20 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the year to October 2020 the total number of people employed in Victoria fell by 124,600. Broad based industry shutdowns over the August – October period as a result of a second wave of COVID-19 infections caused a further contraction in the Victorian economy. As a result Victoria’s economic recovery is likely to be slower than that of other Australian states. DEMAND CONSIDERATIONS Victoria is the fastest-growing state in Australia and has recorded the highest population growth rate since Q3-2015. The majority of this growth has occurred within metropolitan Melbourne. Victoria in Future 2019 projections forecast that over the 2016 – 2051 period metropolitan Melbourne will house an additional 1.57 million households. Recent population growth across metropolitan Melbourne has been underpinned by high levels of overseas migration. The current border restrictions in place as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic will result in population growth falling below that forecast in the short term. SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS Melbourne’s housing stock is predominantly represented by detached housing; however, policy aspirations aim to achieve greater levels of higher density dwellings to accommodate future population growth.

  • (Act for the Future) Directions for a New Local Government Act - Council Submission
    Special Council Meeting Agenda 12/09/16 7 Review of the Local Government Act (Act for the Future) Directions for a New Local Government Act - Council Submission Abstract The Minister for Local Government has initiated a review of the Local Government Act 1989. To support this review, the Minister has released a Directions Paper, which proposes far-reaching changes to the Act, including: Extending mayoral terms to two years, adding or strengthening mayoral powers and providing the option of direct mayoral elections Making council electoral structures, the number of councillors and wards more consistent Requiring Council Plans to be driven by "deliberative community engagement" (for example, citizens' juries) Removing the requirement for non-resident property owners to be voters Making voting rules consistent and providing the option for electronic voting for Council elections in 2020 Giving stronger powers to the Minister for Local Government to deal with individual councillors who compromise council governance Creating a single consistent land valuation system for levying rates There are 157 proposed directions in the Directions Paper. The stated intention of the Minister’s review of the Local Government Act 1989 is ‘...not to further renovate the existing Act but rather to create an entirely new legislative structure’. The Directions Paper indicates the aim of the review is to produce contemporary legislation that modernises the relationship between the state and local government to better reflect essential roles and responsibilities and which provides clear guidance to those who work in the sector, and the community, about those roles and responsibilities. The state government is seeking feedback on the Directions Paper by 16 September 2016.
