Financial Plan 2021-2031

The 2021-2031 City of Whittlesea Financial Plan provides an overview of Council’s financial position and how it plans to responsibly invest in community services and infrastructure over the next decade.

The primary objective in developing Council’s Financial Plan is striking a balance between maximising support for our community in the present, while maintaining a sound financial position to enable long term support for our growing community.

Further Financial Plan objectives include:

  • establishing a clear link between Council’s Community Plan 2021‑2025 and the financial resources required to achieve this in the medium term as well as our Whittlesea 2040 community vision in the longer term
  • determining the appropriate funding sources to support investment decisions in line with Council’s capital management policy
  • ensuring an appropriate balance between investment in new infrastructure to support our growing community and the renewal of our existing assets in established areas
  • ensuring our rates, fees and charges are manageable and support the delivery of key services and infrastructure investment
  • maintaining a strong cash position to ensure we remain financially sustainable for future generations
