Our commitment to responsible financial management

We have prepared the draft Council Budget 2023–24 in-line with our commitment to sustainable budgeting, responsible financial management and the Victorian State Government’s rate cap for 2023–24.

Capital works funds

Good financial management allows us to set funds aside to pay for and deliver the capital works programs for the following year. This deliberate financial planning benefits the community by investing in maintaining our building assets for future decades. It has put us in a good position for the future without reducing services to the community or compromising the standard of maintenance on community assets.

Although we may show a ‘surplus’ at the end of a financial year, these funds make sure that Council is able to renew appropriate levels of community infrastructure.

Delivering what’s important to you

The Boroondara Community Plan 2021–2031 is our key strategic document. It guides everything we do, to make sure we deliver what you told us you value most.
