3 September 2016 Amended Budget

Abstract This report recommends that Council adopt the proposed September 2016 Amended Budget for management reporting purposes. The overall budgeted surplus has decreased by $4.70 million to a surplus of $21.91 million. The major operating movements are a net increase in recurrent income of $1.64 million mainly due to an additional $1.20 million in open space contributions than anticipated. Operating expenditure is expected to increase by a net amount of $605,000 mainly due to an increase in employee costs partially offset by a decrease in depreciation and reduction in insurance premiums for 2016-17. Full explanations of the changes to the Income Statement are provided in Attachment A. Total proposed net priority projects in 2016-17 is predicted to be $14.93 million, an increase of $5.73 million from the 2016-17 Adopted Budget of $9.20 million (refer Attachment B). The increase is primarily due to continued investment in the digital transformation project $3.48 million and carried forward expenditure of $1.05 million for completion of projects in the 2015-16 budget, as noted in the June 2016 Quarterly Performance Report. Total proposed capital works expenditure in 2016-17 is predicted to be $51.80 million, a decrease of $7.95 million from the 2016-17 Adopted Budget of $59.75 million (refer Attachment C).

Responsible director: Marilyn Kearney

Corporate Services ___________________________________________________________________ 1. Purpose

This report recommends that Council adopt the proposed September 2016 Amended Budget including the final list of forward commitments in priority projects and capital works for management reporting purposes.

2. Policy implications and relevance to council plan

This report is consistent with the Council Plan 2013-17 and the Boroondara Public Health and Wellbeing Plan. In particular, the Council Plan theme of “Responsible Management” and the strategic objective “Sound financial and risk management practices are carried out”.

3. Background

The proposed amendments to the 2016-17 Budget are based on sound principles that seek to enhance transparency and accountability of the financial operations of Council. The proposed Amended Budget is for internal management reporting purposes and there are no specific Local Government Act 1989 requirements within this internal budget process. Amendments to the Budget are considered in September and February (if required) each year. For September, the primary aim is identifying forward commitments from the prior year not stated in the Adopted Budget. The September Amended Budget provides the opportunity to review any external impacts to the Budget and provide resources where Council requires additional works.

In accordance with the Council’s Financial Strategy Principles amendments to the Adopted Budget are considered where: additional income has been received reduction in income due to identified reasons transactions required subsequent to finalisation of end of year accounts expenditure increases matching additional income additional non-discretionary expenses deferred expenditure sound accounting processes to meet audit requirements. In the circumstance where additional cash surplus is identified (after taking into account cash requirements of future years), opportunities to reduce planned borrowings should be considered prior to the allocation of new expenditure. Income and expenditure adjustments required for both the Priority Projects and Capital Works Programs have been incorporated into the Amended Budget. Refer Attachments B and C respectively.

4. Outline of key issues/options

The overall budgeted surplus has decreased by $4.70 million to a surplus of $27.52 million (refer Attachment A and B for further explanation). The major operating movements are as follows: Recurrent income An increase in recurrent income of $1.64 million mainly due to the following: Increase in supplementary rates valuations $300,000. Increase in open space contributions anticipated $1.20 million Operating expenditure Recurrent expenditure is expected to increase by $605,000 mainly due to the following: Employee cost adjustments $719,000 including additional resources to

support transition to new customer relationship management (CRM) system and maintain service levels to the community ($172,000) and resources for a Traffic Engineer fully offset by a reduction in materials and services ($90,000).

Work in progress written off - increase in works in progress written off $300,000 (non-cash accounting entry) and relates Capital Works Program expenditure that doesn't meet Council's asset capitalisation criteria.

Parks and gardens - increase in once off expenditure for tree pruning above power lines $295,000.

Insurance premium costs are $521,000 lower than the assumptions used in the development of the 2016-17 Adopted Budget. When comparing the current and prior year actual premium, actual premium savings incurred are $423,000.

Decrease in depreciation of $209,000 (non-cash accounting entry resulting from a review undertaken after the finalisation of the 2015-16 financial results).

Non-recurrent income and expenditure Total proposed net priority projects in 2016-17 is predicted to be $14.93 million, an increase of $5.73 million from the 2016-17 Adopted Budget of $9.20 million mainly due to the following items: Digital Transformation Project $3.48 million - the project implementation

has been accelerated from three years to a 15 month period comprising of two phases. It delivers the benefits within a shorter timeframe with the placement of the community at the centre of everything we do with a more seamless, convenient and more empowering experience for all users. The amended costs include website development contract costs (contract number 2016/190) including the delivery of facilities online booking system and payment gateway together with project implementation and governance resources. The timing, delivery and associated costs of the project implementation has been considered and will be included as part of the review of Council’s Long Term Financial Strategy.

An additional $1.05 million final net forward expenditure commitments to the 2016-17 year has been identified, as noted in the June 2016 Quarterly Performance Report.

Additional temporary resources for Phase 2 of the Customer Relationship Management Program $200,000.

Further detail and explanation of the above is provided in Table 2 of Attachment B Capital Works Total proposed capital works expenditure in 2016-17 is predicted to be $51.80 million, a decrease of $7.95 million from the 2016-17 Adopted Budget of $59.75 million mainly due to the following: $2.45 million in additional net final forward expenditure commitments to

the 2016-17 year, as noted in the June 2016 Quarterly Performance Report.

Forward Capital Works Program - a total of $10.19 million is proposed to be carried forward and included as part of the review of Council’s Long Term Financial Strategy for allocation in 2017-18.

The forward capital works program includes $8.40 million relating to multi-year projects and includes the following: Camberwell Community house - Fairholm Grove redevelopment $3.69

million Camberwell Hockey Pavilion - $2.13 million. 605-609 Glenferrie Road community facility - $1.34 million. Former Balwyn Park Bowls Club Pavilion (proposed Balwyn Tennis) $1.25

million After taking into consideration the proposed Amended Budget adjustments, predicted end of year cash holdings are forecast to increase by $12.80 million to $98.42 million refer Attachment A, which provides a working capital ratio of 2.53 to 1. Reserves and Cash contingency At 30 June 2016 developers open space contributions received exceeded the 2015-16 March forecast by $1.95 million. Council has the option of allocating this amount to the Open Space Development Fund as part of the September Amended Budget. The adjusted working capital ratio is 2.23 to 1 after excluding the following reserve funds/contingencies totalling $13.12 million: Open space development fund ($7.69 million) - includes the proposed

transfer of $1.95 million. Defined Benefits Superannuation Call Up Fund ($4 million). Cash contingency for emergency response works (0.5% or $715,000). Strategic Acquisition Fund ($434,000). Drainage reserve ($282,000).

Council will monitor its Working Capital Ratio to ensure the maintenance of the required level of cash to meet operational requirements and ensure it will remain at or above 1.20 to 1 in line with Council’s Cash Management Principle, contained within the Long Term Financial Strategy.
