Finance & Risk
Council needs to have amended its current Priority Infrastructure Plan (PIP) to a Local Government
Infrastructure Plan (LGIP) by 30 June 2018 in order to continue issuing infrastructure charges and
impose conditions about trunk infrastructure on development.
Since January 2014 to February 2017, $7,819,241 has been collected in infrastructure charges
equating to a current average of $205,770 per month or $2,469,234 per annum. The 2016/2017
budget has conservatively estimated infrastructure charges revenue at $1,687,329 which has
already been exceeded by $853,413.
A long term risk of LGIPs is the commitment ultimately made to provide future infrastructure at
the desired standards of service to meet development growth.
