Draft Operational Plan and Budget 2023-24
This consultation has concluded.
Randwick City Council’s Draft 2023-24 Operational Plan and Budget is our one year plan that details the projects and activities that will be undertaken in the financial year to achieve the commitments made in our 2022-2026 Delivery Program. It includes a detailed budget for the activities, our 2023-24 Fees and Charges, and a Statement of Revenue Policy.
The 2023-24 budget has been set to ensure that we maintain financial sustainability, adequate liquidity and sound asset performance. The budget achieves a fully funded operating position and a balanced budget.
