BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

Budget Overview

BUDGET OVERVIEW The 2020/21 Budget has been prepared on a bottom up basis with responsible fiscal management in mind and a full awareness of Council’s current financial position. The major projects impacting on Council’s bottom line this financial year will be flood recovery works and a plant replacement program, some of which has been held over from the 2019/20 financial year due to a lack of funding.

The 2020/21 Budget year will be no different to others, in that Council will be faced with having to exercise tight control over its spending. Whilst significant funding is expected for flood repair works, these monies will be targeted to specific projects. Council will still need to carefully monitor its general cash reserves in order to meet other capital obligations under the roadworks, plant replacement and asset renewal programs.

The annual increase in rates revenue has been limited to 2.5% for all categories. Council is cognisant of the economic times being experienced by ratepayers within the shire, and has sought to keep rate rises to a minimum while attempting to source government funding for projects where possible. In this vein, Council has been successful in attracting a pleasing amount of federal and state funding for a number of much-needed projects within the shire. Some of these projects and the associated funding are set out in the project list below. A comprehensive list of all projects is set out within the budget papers.

Council has also increased the minimum charges for all rating categories by the same 2.5% amount.

With these comments in mind the 2020/21 financial year has an operational deficit of $8.2M, however when depreciation of $7.6M Council has a shortfall of cash of approximately $600K of cash which is due to funded programmes for this financial year being received in past years. This is a very sobering thought and obviously refocuses your attention on the burning issue of financial sustainability in local government particularly west of the Great Dividing Range in .

At the end of June 2020, Council’s accumulated funds, amounted to $11,855M. However, this will be impacted this year with Council’s commitment to projects that have either commenced or been funded with grants and matching revenue. In line with its general approach, Council has committed that if the supporting grant funding is not received, the projects will not progress, thus reducing the impact on our funds and providing for responsible management of our position.

Council is also mindful of the risk in carrying large debt, particularly when our own sourced revenue is low, and other revenue streams are subject to large variations in road works contracts and competitive government grants. We currently have one rural electrification loan of approximately $25.9K which is forecast to be repaid by 15 December 2021. Whilst there is opportunity for Council to borrow for large projects and spread this cost over the life of the asset, Council wishes to ensure these type of projects are funded from cash.

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 3 of 130

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

Council believes that we all have to live within our means, and whilst debt is a valid method of financing assets that have a future value and can be sold to realise that value, it is also passing on a debt to future councils and members of the community. Therefore there is significant support from Council to continually review our operations, and look towards doing our business more efficiently, so as to capitalise on some of these savings. With modern technology, communications, improved vehicle maintenance requirements and better opportunity to upskill our employees, there is opportunity to save costs within our organisation through good management and good governance. It is incumbent on Council and senior management to ensure our staff has the skills and knowledge to support the vision of Council into the future.

We are looking forward to another progressive year for Council, but we must acknowledge that the opportune years of continued grant funding and Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA) works are potentially receding, and we must look to other ways to fund our future.

Revenue Policy

Resolution Number: SM2020.08.010 Date Adopted: 5 August 2020 Classification: Statutory Scheduled Review: 31 July 2021 Responsible Officer: Chief Executive Officer Policy Number BSC037 Legislation Local Government Act 2009; Local Government Regulation 2012 Section of Corporate Plan Corporate Financial Sustainability

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this Revenue Policy is to set out the principles used by Council for: • The levying of rates and charges, • Granting concessions for rates and charges, • The recovery of overdue rates and charges, and; • Cost-recovery methods.

POLICY STATEMENT The Barcoo Shire Council can be recognised as a medium sized rural Local Government that is well known for its diverse and complex landscapes which change depending on the climate. Barcoo Shire is vast in its jurisdiction and as such has a complex and varied range of services and responsibilities.

For many years, the Council’s budget has been revenue driven rather than expenditure orientated. This approach has meant that Council provides for the necessary administrative, maintenance and operational expenses through revenue. An amount of revenue will be set aside for capital expenditures in the current budget and another amount set apart for future capital expenditure. It is acknowledged that Council must “maintain” and “control” expenses and be prepared to allocate necessary resources over an extended period of time, in order to purchase discretionary capital items. Council must also seek out and await the allocation of special grants. Borrowing is not a preferred budget option, however it may be contemplated in special circumstances.

The revenue based budget approach reverses the textbook approach to rating. The usual budget model will see rates calculated so as to deliver the difference between budget expenditure and other income. Although the budget expenditures contemplated under the usual model may have been subject to trimming to fit economic circumstances, the underlying approach differs considerably both in theory and in practice to that used by Barcoo Shire Council along with many other Shire councils.

Council has made a decision to trim expenditure so as to permit it to live within its usual income. This may see some expenditure deferred and some temporary acceptance of lower standards for roads or other infrastructure than is ordinarily desirable. However, Council considers that containing rate increases and providing greater certainty about rate levels from year to year is a better option for its community than raising more revenue to fund more or better services that cannot be sustained in the long term.

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 7 of 130

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

The rate increases in some differential categories may be higher than those in others. However, such adjustments will be directed at achieving greater rating equity within Council's broader strategy of containing, through conservative budgeting, the increase in aggregate general rate revenue. The overall rating strategy will continue to see differential rating, minimum rates and concessions used to gather necessary revenue equitably and to acknowledge different patterns for the use of Council's services.

DEFINITIONS Nil

PROCEDURE 1. PRINCIPLES A. Principles used for the making of rates & charges In general Council will be guided by the principle of user pays in the making of rates and charges so as to minimise the impact of rating on the efficiency of the local economy.

Council will also have regard to the principles of: • Transparency in the making of rates and charges • Having in place a rating regime that is simple and inexpensive to administer • Equity by taking account of the different levels of capacity to pay within the local community • Flexibility to take account of changes in the local economy.

In accordance with section 94 of the Local Government Act 2009: 1. Each local government: a. must levy general rates on all rateable land within the local government area; and b. may levy i. special rates and charges; and ii. utility charges; and iii. separate rates and charges. (1A) Without limiting subsection (1), a local government may categorise rateable land, and decide differential rates for rateable land, according to whether or not the land is the principal place of residence of the owner. 2. A local government must decide, by resolution at the local government’s budget meeting for a financial year, what rates and charges are to be levied for that financial year.

Where possible, Council will endeavour to base all rates and charges on a full cost recovery basis. In making its decisions regarding the quantum of rates and charges, Council will endeavour to avoid undertaking borrowings. It is understood however, that in order for Council to undertake certain specific projects, borrowing may be a necessary requirement.

2. GENERAL RATES Council recognises that different categories of land use will generate different needs and requirements for Council services and facilities. Council also recognises that it will incur a different level of resource expenditure to provide the necessary services and facilities.

Although a single general rate would provide simplicity, its adoption would necessitate Council setting a high minimum rate to deal with the fact that land values in the three towns are very low in relation to rural land but those who live in the towns have greater access to Council services.

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 8 of 130

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

Council believes that the existing distribution of the general rate burden through its differential rates regime is generally equitable as it reflects incremental changes over many years.

Council proposes therefore to continue to levy differential general rates to ensure that the rate burden is distributed in similar fashion to the pattern in recent years. Council will continue to gather data and to consider this information so as to further refine this process. To ensure that owners of land across all differential categories contribute equitably to the cost of common services, Council applies a minimum rate to each differential rating category.

3. SPECIAL RATES AND CHARGES Council may make and levy a special rate or charge on rateable land, to help defray the cost of providing a service, facility and or an activity where, in Council's opinion: • The land, or the occupier of the land, has or will especially benefit from the provision of the service, facility or activity; or • The occupier of the land, or the use made or to be made of the land, has, or will, especially contribute to the need for the service, facility or activity. 4. UTILITY CHARGES Council may make and levy a utility charge on any land, whether vacant or occupied, and whether or not it is rateable land; or a structure; to recover costs in relation to the provision of services and/or facilities. Barcoo Shire operates water treatment and reticulates services to all three communities and will charge within the bounds of fairness and equity of charges with reference to similar charges across the State. Cost Recovery will not be achieved in the near future.

5. REGULATORY AND NON-REGULATORY CHARGES Regulatory charges shall be measured on the basis of the estimated cost of providing the goods or service. Non-regulatory charges shall be measured on a commercial basis unless it is considered necessary to reduce the charge in order to maintain access to certain services for disadvantaged persons.

6. INTEREST Council may impose interest on rates and charges that remain unpaid after sectional period expires i.e. 1st July and 1st January each calendar year and may include assessments that are making payments of outstanding rates by instalments.

7. PRINCIPLES USED FOR THE LEVYING OF RATES In levying rates Council will apply the principles of: • Making clear what is the Council’s and each ratepayers responsibility to the rating system, • Making the levying system simple and inexpensive to administer, • Timing the levy of rates to take into account the financial cycle of local economic activity, in order to assist smooth running of the local economy, and; • Equity through flexible payment arrangements for ratepayers with a lower capacity to pay.

8. LEVYING OF RATES AND CHARGES Council will issue a rates notice to the owner of the land on which a rate or charge has been applied. Rates notices shall include the date the notice was issued, the date by which time the rate must be paid and any discounts, rebates or concessions applied.

Council will issue notices on a half yearly basis during the periods 1st July to 31st December and 1st January to 30th June in the respective financial year.

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 9 of 130

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

Council will responsibly ensure that the rates and charges applied are correct and are generally issued within the month of September and March to better take into account the financial cycle of the local economy.

9. PAYMENT OF RATES AND CHARGES

Owner Liability It is the liability of the ‘owner’ to pay rates and charges levied against land held in their name. It is the liability of persons’ at whose request a service is supplied to a structure or land that is not rateable land (s106 LGR).

Where joint ownership of a property exists or other persons are liable to pay a rate, all owners or other persons are jointly and severally liable.

Rates and charges will exist with the land i.e. where a change in ownership occurs and a rate or charge exists against the land the ‘owner’ of the land will become liable for payment.

Where land ceases to be rateable land the owner of said land immediately before it ceased to be rateable land is taken to continue as the owner of the land, and the land is taken to continue to be rateable land for the levy, collection or refund of a rate on the land for any period before it ceased to be rateable land.

Methods of Payment Council may accept the payment of rates and charges by differing methods. These may include cash, direct debit, BPAY, credit card or cheque.

Payments in Advance Payments in advance by way of lump sum or instalments may be accepted, however interest will not be payable on any credit balances held.

Payment by Instalments Council may allow payments by instalment where it will benefit both the individual and the collection of overdue rates and charges.

Time in which Rates must be paid The rates and charges levied by Council must be paid within thirty (30) clear days after the notice is issued (s118 LGR).

10. PRINCIPLES USED FOR THE RECOVERY OF RATES AND CHARGES Council will exercise its rate recovery powers in order to reduce the overall rate burden on ratepayers. It will be guided by the principles of: • Transparency by making clear the obligations of ratepayers and the processes used by Council in assisting them meet their financial obligations; • Making the processes used to recover outstanding rates and charges clear, simple to administer and cost effective; • Capacity to pay in determining appropriate arrangements for different sectors of the community; • Equity by having regard to providing the same treatment for ratepayers with similar circumstances; and

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 10 of 130

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

• Flexibility by responding where necessary to changes in the local economy.

An overdue rate is an amount of a rate payable to a local government that remains unpaid at the end of the period specified in the rate notice as the period within which the amount of the rate is payable, (including any amount of interest on the rate). With due regard for financial hardship, Council shall actively pursue the collection of outstanding rates and charges.

Standard Performance • Where there has been no movement on an account or an instalment plan has defaulted Council may refer overdue rates to a mercantile agent or a solicitor for recovery. • Generally an account will not be referred for external recovery action unless it is $500.00 or greater in value. • Council may negotiate payment plans for any debt that may be referred to an external recovery agent.

11. CONCESSIONS FOR RATES AND CHARGES In considering the application of concessions, Council will be guided by the principles of: • Equity by having regard to the different levels of capacity to pay within the local community, • The same treatment for ratepayers with similar circumstances, • Transparency by making clear the requirements necessary to receive concessions, and; • Flexibility to allow Council to respond to local economic issues.

Consideration may be given by Council to granting a class concession in the event all or part of the local government area is declared a natural disaster area by the State Government.

12. DISCOUNT In accordance with section 130 of the Local Government Regulation 2012, Council may allow a discount on all general rates, if payment is made within 30 clear days from the date of issue of the notice.

If Council is satisfied that a person liable to pay a rate has been prevented, by circumstances beyond the person’s control, from paying the rate in time to benefit from a discount under section 130 of the Local Government Regulation 2012, may still allow the discount following written application by the ratepayer.

13. GENERAL RATE CAPS Because general rates are made and levied upon the unimproved value of land determined by the Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy, Council recognises that the statutory valuation process may result in unusually high valuation increases for at least some classes of land, if not for all land. Where it considers that applying the differential general rate to affected lands or classes of land will produce inequities between ratepayers or classes of ratepayer, Council may cap general rate increases for the lands or classes of land concerned.

14. OTHER REBATES AND CONCESSIONS Council may, at its discretion allow other concessions or remissions. These may include pensioner rebates, natural hardship and or social and economic incentives.

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

15. PRINCIPLES USED FOR DETERMINING COST RECOVERY FEES The Council recognises the validity of fully imposing the user pays principle for its cost-recovery fees, unless the imposition of the fee is contrary to its express social economic, environmental and other corporate goals. This is considered to be the most equitable and effective revenue approach, and is founded on the basis that the Shire’s rating base cannot subsidise the specific users or clients of Council’s regulatory products and services (s 97 LGA).

16. RESPONSIBILITIES Chief Executive Officer is responsible for implementation of this Policy.

17. ASSOCIATED DOCUMENTS AND POLICIES • Barcoo Shire Council Corporate Plan • Barcoo Shire Council Operational Plan • Barcoo Shire Council Debtors Policy

Revenue Statement

Resolution Number: SM2020.08.010 Date Adopted: 5 August 2020 Classification: Statutory Scheduled Review: 31 July 2021 Responsible Officer: Chief Executive Officer Policy Number BSC038 Legislation Local Government Act 2009; Local Government Regulation 2012 Section of Corporate Plan Corporate Financial Sustainability

OBJECTIVE This Revenue Statement is based on the principles set out in Council’s Revenue Policy and has been formulated in accordance with the Local Government Regulation 2012 s172. The purpose of this policy is to explain the revenue measures adopted in the budget concerning: • The making of rates and charges; • The levying of rates; • The recovery of rates and charges; • Concessions for rates and charges.

SCOPE This revenue statement applies to the financial year 2020 - 2021.

INTRODUCTION This document sets out how rates and charges are decided, including the extent the rates and charges relate to relevant costs. Barcoo Shire Council revenue is obtained by rates, charges, licenses, interest, permits, rents, fees, grants, donations, contract and private works, and the realisation of assets. Council charges and collects fees to maintain Council’s operating capability. The purpose of this policy is to provide a framework by which Council may structure a portfolio of income generating strategies to meet the financial resource needs and demands of its functional programs in accordance with overall corporate objectives.

REVENUE STATEMENT 2020/2021 A. Principles used for the making of rates & charges In general Council will be guided by the principle of user pays in the making of rates and charges so as to minimise the impact of rating on the efficiency of the local economy. Council will also have regard to the principles of: • Transparency in the making of rates and charges • Having in place a rating regime that is simple and inexpensive to administer • Equity by taking account of the different levels of capacity to pay within the local community • Flexibility to take account of changes in the local economy. In accordance with section 94 of the Local Government Act 2009 Council – 1. Must levy general rates on all rateable land within the local government area; and 2. May levy special rates and charges; and utility charges; and separate rates and charges. Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 13 of 130

3. A local government must decide, by resolution at the local government’s budget meeting for a financial year, what rates and charges are to be levied for that financial year. Where possible, Council will endeavour to base all rates and charges on a full cost recovery basis. In making its decisions regarding the quantum of rates and charges, Council will endeavour to avoid undertaking borrowings. It is understood however, that in order for Council to undertake certain specific projects, borrowing may be a necessary requirement.

Differential General Rates In accordance with the Local Government Regulation 2012, Part 13 Land record of Local Government, Barcoo Shire Council will make and levy a differential general rate for the financial year ending 30 June 2020, taking into consideration the following aspects: • Council recognises that different categories of land use will generate different needs and requirements for Council services and facilities. Council also recognises that it will incur a different level of resource expenditure to provide the necessary services and facilities. • Council has considered the consequences of adopting ‘one’ general rate and acknowledges that to do so would seriously disturb the relative distribution of the rate burden. • Although a ‘single general rate’ would provide simplicity, its adoption would necessitate Council setting a high minimum rate to deal with the fact that land values in the towns are very low in relation to rural land but those who live in the towns have greater access to council services. • Council proposes therefore to continue to levy differential general rates to ensure that the rate burden is distributed in a similar fashion to the pattern in recent years. Council will continue to gather data and to consider this information so as to further refine this process. • To ensure that owners of land across all differential categories contribute equitably to the cost of common services, Council applies a minimum rate to each differential rating category. • Historically Council has maintained its minimum rates at very low levels, given the standards of services it provides; but Council cannot continue to do this without compromising or reducing those standards. Council therefore proposes to increase the minimum rates to enable it at least to maintain the current standards of services it provides.

Limitation of Increase in the Rate Levied Council chooses not to limit any amount of increase in rate levied for any Category (s116 LGR).

Special Rates and Charges Special Charge for Pest Animal Control In accordance with Section 94 of the Local Government Act and section 94 of the Local Government Regulation, Council shall levy a special charge for the provision of pest control services to rural properties in the region. It is considered that the properties subject of the charge specially benefit from the provision of pest control services, because the services assist with the control of wild dogs which can reduce the threat to livestock. A special charge shall be levied and no discount will apply:

Pest Animal Control – Rural Land Description Charge 2020/2021 per hectare on all rural land within the Council area, 2.05 cents per hectare up to a maximum of having an area in excess of 1,000 hectares $15,076 per assessment

Overall Plan for the Pest Animal Control special charge is as follows: 1. The service, facility or activity is provision of pest control services to the rural parts of the Council area. These pest control services serve to assist with the control of wild dogs and wild pigs which, in turn, improves the viability of, and therefore benefits, the land being levied. A panel will continue to manage the process and act as an advisory committee to Council on wild animal control within the Shire. 2. The rateable land to which the special rate shall apply is all rural land within the Council area, having an area in excess of 1,000 hectares. Council considers that the rateable land described

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

Regulatory and Non-Regulatory Charges Regulatory charges shall be measured on the basis of the estimated cost of providing the goods or service. Non-regulatory charges shall be measured on a commercial basis unless it is considered necessary to reduce the charge in order to maintain access to certain services for disadvantaged persons.

General Charges Council fixes charges for services and facilities supplied by it in relation to Section 94 of the Act. A Register of the Council's general charges is kept by the Council at its office in Jundah and in accordance with the provisions of the Act; this Register is open to inspection. In determining the level of all general charges, the Council examines the economic indicators and having due regard for the levels and ranges of services delivered. Current Miscellaneous Fees and Charges are shown in the Fees and Charges Schedule.

Interest Council may impose interest on rates and charges that remain unpaid after the sectional period expires i.e. 1st July and 1st January each calendar year and may include assessments that are making payments of outstanding rates by instalment. For any outstanding amounts as at the above dates, interest will be calculated on daily balances of amounts outstanding and charged at the end of the month on a compounding daily interest. Where the amount of interest charged is less than $10.00 and the rates have been paid in full in the period between the close of discount and the end of the month, the interest may be written off following approval from the Chief Executive Officer. Interest on arrears will be charged at the Prescribed Rate in accordance with section 133 of the Local Government Regulation 2012. The ‘Prescribed Rate; is the bank yield rate of the day, rounded to two decimal points, plus 8 percent. The ‘bank yield rate’ is the monthly yield of 90 day bank accepted bills published by the Reserve Bank of for the month of March in the financial year immediately before the financial year in which the day occurs. At 30 April 2020 the 90 Day Bank bill rate is 0.098% meaning the total interest rate charged by Council for 2020/21 will be 8.53%.

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

B. Principles used for the levying of rates In levying rates Council will apply the principles of: • Making clear what is the Council’s and each ratepayer’s responsibility to the rating system • Making the levying system simple and inexpensive to administer • Timing the levy of rates to take into account the financial cycle of local economic activity, in order to assist smooth running of the local economy • Equity through flexible payment arrangements for ratepayers with a lower capacity to pay.

Levying of Rates and Charges In accordance with section 104 of the Local Government Regulation 2012, Council will issue a rates notice to the owner of the land on which a rate or charge has been applied. Rates notices shall include the date the notice was issued, the date by which time the rate must be paid and any discounts, rebates or concessions applied. Council will issue notices on a half yearly basis during the periods 01 July to 31 December and 01 January to 30 June in the respective financial year. Council will responsibly ensure that the rates and charges applied are correct and are generally issued within the month of September and March to better take into account the financial cycle of the local economy.

Methods of Payment Council will accept the payment of rates by the following methods. • Cash • certain Credit Cards • EFTPOS / Electronic funds transfer • BPAY – Available through participating financial Institutions • Cheque Payments can be made at the following locations: • Administration Office 6 Perkins Street, Jundah. • Windorah Information Centre 7 Maryborough Street, Windorah • Stonehenge Information Centre 9 Stratford Street, Stonehenge • Jundah Information Centre 11 Dickson Street, Jundah • By Mail Barcoo Shire Council, PO Box 14, Jundah QLD 4736 Acceptance of a cheque and issue of a receipt are conditional on collection of the proceeds and until collection, no credit is given or implied. Property owners will be liable for any dishonour fees and discount will be lost where cheques are dishonoured and not rectified prior to the discount date.

Payments In Advance Payments in advance by way of lump sum or instalments may be accepted, however interest will not be payable on any credit balances held. Payment of Rates by Instalments Council has no specific policy on payment of rates by instalment and applications received are considered on merit and within the terms of the Section 129 of the Local Government Regulation 2012.

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 22 of 130

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

Time in which rates or charges must be paid Council has set the time in which rates and charges must be paid at thirty (30) clear days after the date of issue of the rate notice (s132 LGR).

C. Principles used for the recovery of rates and charges Council will exercise its rate recovery powers in order to reduce the overall rate burden on ratepayers. It will be guided by the principles of: • Transparency by making clear the obligations of ratepayers and the processes used by Council in assisting them meet their financial obligations; • Making the processes used to recover outstanding rates and charges clear, simple to administer and cost effective; • Capacity to pay in determining appropriate arrangements for different sectors of the community; • Equity by having regard to providing the same treatment for ratepayers with similar circumstances; and • Flexibility by responding where necessary to changes in the local economy An overdue rate is an amount of a rate payable to a local government that remains unpaid at the end of the period specified in the rate notice as the period within which the amount of the rate is payable, (including any amount of interest on the rate). With due regard for financial hardship, Council shall actively pursue the collection of outstanding rates and charges.

Standard Performance • 1st Notice issued within 21 days of end of discount period, • 2nd Notice issued subsequent to the first notice having regard for any correspondence and or contact (after 30 days and before 60 days for the issue of the second notice), • Clients will be given the opportunity to initiate an instalment plan satisfactory to both parties and that reduce the balance substantially to avoid an escalation of balances subsequent to new levies, • Where there has been no movement on an account or an instalment plan has defaulted, Council may with the issue of third and final notice refer the debt to a debt recovery agent, (elected through quotation or tender), • Generally an account will not be referred to the collection agent, unless it is $500 or greater in value, • All debts referred to a recovery agent, shall be subject to their terms and conditions of payment. • Payment plans will be considered even though Council has referred the debt to a collection agent, and; • Where the collection agent is unable to trace the interested parties, the account shall be referred back to Council and standard reminder notices will be forwarded periodically.

Further Action Where the collection agent has returned no result, Council may make a resolution, to proceed with legal action against the interested parties. Properties in default of payment for three (3) or more years may initiate action under Section 132 of the Local Government Regulation 2012 – Notice of intention to sell land for overdue rates or charges.

Exceptional Circumstances - Drought Relief or Natural Disaster Council may at its discretion grant some relief to rural ratepayers who are financially stressed by Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 23 of 130

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021 drought or have been affected by a natural disaster. The relief may be in the form of an extension to the period during which Council will permit discount to be deducted from rates. This period shall be extended to the end of the period covered by the rate levy. This concession may be available only to primary producers who can provide objective evidence of financial difficulty arising from drought or natural disaster. The Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy shall be the determining body for the process of declaration of drought.

D. Principles used for concessions for rates and charges In considering the application of concessions, Council will be guided by the principles of: • Equity by having regard to the different levels of capacity to pay within the local community • The same treatment for ratepayers with similar circumstances • Transparency by making clear the requirements necessary to receive concessions • Flexibility to allow Council to respond to local economic issues. Consideration may be given by Council to granting a class concession in the event all or part of the local government area is declared a natural disaster area by the State Government. Rebates and Concessions Discount In accordance with Section 130 of the Local Government Regulation 2012, a discount of 10% is allowed on specified rates and charges if paid in full by the date determined on the rate notice. If Council is satisfied that a person liable to pay a rate has been prevented, by circumstances beyond the person’s control, from paying the rate in time to benefit from a discount undersection 130 of the Local Government Regulation 2012, may still allow the discount following written application by the ratepayer.

Pensioner Remissions Pensioners, who make application in the prescribed manner and are eligible, will be granted a 50% remission on all rates and charges, up to a maximum remission $750 per year. Remissions will only apply to categories 1, 2 and 3 being for the townships of Jundah, Windorah and Stonehenge. This provision does not apply to any other persons except pensioners. Prescribed pensioner means a pensioner:

• Who holds a current Pensioner Concession Card, issued by Centrelink or Department of Veterans’ Affairs. The Card must be produced by the applicant when making the application for remission, • Who either solely or jointly has the legal responsibility for the payment of the rate levy in respect of the parcel of rateable land, and; • Whose principle place of residence is the parcel of rateable land in respect of which they have the legal responsibility for the payment of the rate levy. Council may grant a rebate of rates and charges for land occupied only by pensioners only if the landowner agrees to pass the benefit of the rebate on to the pensioners.

Exempt Assessments General Charges Under Section 73 “Subsection (3)(i) gives the Council a general power to exempt land from rating by resolution, if it is used for “charitable” purposes. It is considered that the term “charitable” would be

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 24 of 130

BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021 given its technical legal meaning which is not limited to “charities” as the term is used in popular language, but extends to educational purposes, uses related to assistance to the poor, uses related to assistance to the sick and, very broadly, other purposes beneficial to the public. The use of the technical meaning, which is broader than the “popular” meaning in everyday speech, is supported by many cases from various jurisdictions dealing with similar legislation including the Privy Council’s decision in Ashfield Municipal Council v Joyce (1976) 34 LGRA 316, and the more recent NSW decision (subsequently upheld on appeal) in Bodalla Aboriginal Housing Co Ltd v Eurobodalla Shire Council (2011) 184 LGERA 315. Thus, subsection (3)(i) allows a local government to grant rates exemption whenever land is being used for a purpose which has a public service element, and which is conducted on a non-profit basis. The concept of “non-profit” does not necessarily require that revenue never exceeds expenses; what is required is that all revenue goes directly towards advancing the relevant public purpose, and that no individual makes a personal profit out of the operations of the activity.” Section 73 of the Regulation provides for further exemptions for land held for religious, recreation, sporting, hospital, educational and other charitable purposes.

E. Principles Used for Determining Cost Recovery Fees Cost‐Recovery Fees Council regulates various activities within the community in order to ensure a standard of amenity commensurate with public expectations and to comply with legislative requirements. The fees are not to be more than the cost to Council of taking the action for which the fee is charged. Council sets these fees each financial year. These fees are subject to change by Council resolution at any time.

Business Activities Sections 9 (Powers of local governments generally) and 262 (Powers in support of responsibilities) of the Local Government Act, 2009 provide the Council, as a legal entity, with powers to charge for services and facilities it supplies, other than a service or facility for which a cost-recovery fee may be fixed. Such business activity charges are for transactions where the Council is prepared to provide a service and the other party to the transaction can choose whether or not to avail itself of the service. The making of business activity charges may be delegated by the Council (recorded in the Delegations Register). Business activity charges are subject to the Goods and Services Tax. Such charges may be reviewed by the Council at any time. The nature, level and standard of the entitlement, facility or service is considered by the Council in the setting of business activity charges. Central to deliberations on these matters is the Council's community service obligation and the principle of social equity. The principle of "user pays" is considered only where the provision of a service, entitlement or facility may be in direct competition with private enterprise. Business activity charges include but are not confined to the following: rents, sale of fuel and goods, plant hire, private works and hire of facilities.

Contract and Private Work Contract and / or private work undertaken by the Council will be charged at rates not less favourable than commercial rates applicable at the time and as determined by Council from time to time.

Operating Capabilities, Borrowings, Depreciation and Provisions Borrowings Borrowings are as per Council’s adopted Debt and Borrowings Policy

Depreciation and Non‐Cash Expenses Council’s non-cash expenses including depreciation are to be fully funded.

Developer Costs Council is currently implementing a Priority Infrastructure Plan (PIP) which deals with development contribution and Council requirements.

Goods and Services Tax Goods and Services Tax (GST) is charged on any Council rates or charges, fees, services or materials where applicable and according to law.

Exempt Lands The lands mentioned in Section 93 of the Local Government Act 2009, are exempt lands within the Barcoo Shire Council.

Debt & Borrowing Policy

Resolution Number: SM2020.08.011 Date Adopted: 5 August 2020 Classification: Statutory Scheduled Review: 31 July 2021 Responsible Officer: Chief Executive Officer Policy Number: BSC039 Legislation: Local Government Act 2009, Local Government Regulation 2012; Statutory Bodies Financial Arrangements Act 1982. Section of Corporate Plan: Executive - Governance

OBJECTIVE The objective of this policy is to ensure the sound management of Barcoo Shire Council’s existing and future debt in the 2020-2021 financial year.

POLICY STATEMENT Council will manage its finances to promote the best interests of local residents, including decisions made for the purposes outlined below.

DEFINITIONS Nil

PROCEDURE Council’s approach to debt will incorporate the following principles: • The appropriate mix of debt to internal funding used is intended to provide the lowest long term level of rates which does over commit Council in the future, • Borrowing should provide adequate flexibility in the short term, • The total debt accrued should depend on future outlook for growth in the Shire area, and; • The term of the debt will relate to the life of the asset obtained by borrowing, but will not exceed twenty (20) years for any individual asset.

Council will aim to reduce the overall level of debt by continuing repayments as per the adopted schedules set by the lending institute.

In order to provide the best possible service for ratepayers, Council will restrict the purpose of loans to asset acquisition and capital expenditure. As the outcome of borrowing for these purposes will benefit present and future generations and the cost is fairly shared across the years. Council is not expected to borrow funds over the next 10 years:

The time over which it is planned to repay an existing loan is as follows: Balance as at Purpose of Borrowing Annual Remaining Term Interest 30/6/2020 Repayments (Years) Rate $19,009.68 Rural Electrification Loan $13,323 1.5 5.025%

Investment Policy

Resolution Number: SM2020.08.012 Date Adopted: 5 August 2020 Classification: Statutory Scheduled Review: 31 July 2021 Responsible Officer: Chief Executive Officer Policy Number: BSC040 Legislation: Local Government Act 2009; Local Government Regulation 2012; Statutory Bodies Financial Arrangement Act 1982; Statutory Bodies Financial Arrangement Regulations 2007 Section of Corporate Plan: Executive - Governance

OBJECTIVE To guide the investment of all funds held by Barcoo Shire Council.

POLICY STATEMENT Barcoo Shire Council will invest Council funds not immediately required for financial commitments and ensure: • The maximisation of the earnings from authorised investments of cash reserves after assessing counterparty, market and liquidity risks; • The active management of the net debt position with core surplus funds; and • That adequate internal controls are in place and appropriate records are kept to safeguard public monies.

Council’s investment portfolio should be realisable, without penalty, in a reasonable time frame. The term to maturity of Council’s investments must not exceed one year.

Category 1 relates to investments for a fixed time of not more than one (1) year.

Authorised investments comprise: • Deposits with a financial institution; • Investment arrangements accepted, guaranteed or issued by or for the Commonwealth or a State or a financial institution; • Other investment arrangements secured by investment arrangements accepted, guaranteed or issued by or for the Commonwealth or a State or a financial institution; • Investments with Queensland Investment Corporation (QIC) Cash Fund, Queensland Treasury Corporation (QTC) Capital Guaranteed Cash Fund, QTC Debt Offset Facility, QTC Fixed Rate Deposit (up to 12 months), QTC Working Capital Facility; • An investment arrangement with a rating prescribed under a regulation that specifically refers back to this paragraph; and • Other investment arrangements prescribed under a regulation that specifically refers back to this paragraph.

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 55 of 130 BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

The investment must be at call or for a fixed time of not more than one (1) year.

PROCEDURE There are three areas of funds placement available to Council a) Direct Council Investment – Investment; b) Funds Management – Outsourcing of Investment; c) Debt Reduction Strategies. (a) Council’s Direct Investment At least three (3) quotations shall be obtained from authorised institutions whenever an investment is proposed. The best quote on the day will be successful after allowing for administrative and banking costs, as well as having regard to the limits set below.

Investments held with QTC cash fund will be benchmarked against other investments or quoted investment rates at the end of each calendar month to ensure Council is receiving the most advantageous rate given the risk/return trade-off.

The term to maturity of any Council’s direct investments may range from “At Call” to one (1) year.

(b) Investments with Funds Managers The overall term of any managed funds should be appropriate to Council’s investment objectives and adhere to the market risk (volatility) restrictions as determined by regulation. Council funds with a time horizon of 0–180 days should be invested in a cash fund, whilst funds which are available for 6-12 months or more may be invested in approved cash plus funds providing they have a bank bill performance benchmark.

When placing investments, consideration will be given to the relationship between credit rating and interest rate. The amount invested with financial institutions (banks, credit unions, building societies) or managed funds should not exceed the following percentages of average funds invested at any time.

Investments in government secured or issued arrangements including investments with QIC or QTC shall be invested as per the percentage for Rating A1+ Short Term Rating below: Long Term Rating Short Term Rating Maximum (Standard & Poors Global Rating) (Standard & Poors Global Rating) Percentage of Total Investments AAA to AA A1+ 100% A+ to A A1 50% BBB+ to BBB A2 25% BB+ to D - Nil

Investments in non-financial institutions are restricted to short term investments rated A-1 by Standard and Poors Global (S&PG) ratings or the Moody’s equivalent short term rating.

To further diversify risk, no more than one-third of Council’s investments will be held with one financial or non-financial institution (except QTC).

If any of the funds/securities held are downgraded such that they no longer fall within Council’s investment policy guidelines, they will be divested within 28 days or as soon as is practicable.

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 56 of 130 BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

Council shall keep a current list of long term paper ratings for both the cash and bond funds (the managed funds must maintain a minimum AA rating) and the financial institutions. The ratings shall be updated on a minimum three (3) monthly basis.

Short Term Rating Order 0-365 days (as defined by S&PG Ratings): A1+ Extremely strong degree of safety regarding timely payment A1 A strong degree of safety for timely payment A2 A satisfactory capacity for timely payment

Long Term Rating Order is: AAA to AAA An extremely strong capacity to repay AA+ to AA A very strong capacity to repay A+ to A- A strong capacity to repay BBB+ to BBB An adequate capacity to repay

When deciding whether to make an investment, Council gives consideration to whether the interest rate offered represents fair compensation (fair value) for the level of credit risk involved. Fair value for Council is determined by referencing the Bank Bill Swap Rate (BBSW) and applying consideration for the credit risk margin for various financial institutions. For example, if the BBSW is 5% and the credit risk margin is 0.25% for Bank XYZ, the quoted rate from this bank must be at least 5.25% or better. The BBSW is provided on a (business) daily basis via QTC’s Internet site.

All term deposits/bank bill investments will be benchmarked to ensure that they meet the BBSW as a minimum. This might require seeking further investment quotations on the day of the investment to ensure the benchmark is achieved where possible.

Council will be provided with a monthly Executive Financial Performance Report detailing the investments held by institution, term of investment, interest rate and credit ratings.

(c) Debt Reduction Strategies Debt reduction strategies that could be adopted by Council include:

(i) Principal repayment A principal repayment provides an immediate reduction in the principal outstanding on Council’s debt. Benefits are obtained from the reduced interest and administration costs which are calculated on the daily balance of the market value outstanding. A principal repayment may be made when it is appropriate to reduce the level of debt given Council’s target capital structure.

Consideration though must be given to Council’s ability to re-borrow repaid debt if needed to meet future requirements.

(ii) Prepayment of Debt Service Payments A prepaid debt service payment provides an immediate reduction in the principal outstanding on Council’s debt. Benefits are obtained from the reduced interest and administration costs which are calculated on the daily balance of the market value outstanding. In contrast to a principal

Budget Document Financial Policies & Operational Plan 2020-2021 Page 57 of 130 BARCOO SHIRE COUNCIL BUDGET 2020‐2021

repayment where Council is required to continue to pay upcoming debt service payments, Council is not required to pay the allocated normal debt service payments.

A prepayment of debt service payments may be made when it is appropriate to reduce the level of debt given Council’s target capital structure. This option may also be used to increase flexibility with respect to the timing of loan repayments.

The economic effect of the prepayment will be equivalent to a principal repayment, and will depend on where Council sits in its target capital structure range. As the prepayment can be carried forward indefinitely, Council’s future cash flow flexibility may increase as it does not need to make the forthcoming debt service payment.

INTERNAL CONTROLS Council will utilise its Category 1 investment powers to earn interest revenue on its operating funds to supplement Council’s other sources of revenue.

Further, Council will maintain appropriate internal controls to prevent the fraudulent use of public monies. The procedure for the investment of Council funds is to be documented and followed at all times.

Council is at all times to have in place appropriate controls to prevent the fraudulent use of public monies. The following controls detail the minimum that is required: • A person is to be identified as the responsible officer for the investment function. • All investments are to be authorised by the Chief Executive Officer, or in that person’s absence, the Manager of Corporate Services. • Confirmation advices from the Financial Institution are to be attached to the Investment Authorisation Form as evidence that the investment is in the name of Barcoo Shire Council. • A person, other than the responsible officer, is to perform the bank reconciliation at the end of each month (alternatively, the reconciliation needs to be reviewed by another officer).
