SERVICES & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                     9 NOVEMBER 2021


Our Finances
       Our financial KPIs measure solvency, investment performance and outstanding rates. All of
         these KPIs continue to be on track and in particular, there is no significant change in trend for
         rate arrears. Our ratepayers are paying their rates at the same level as pre-pandemic times.
        Council receives a financial performance report at the end of each month which provides a
         more detailed analysis of Council’s financial position. Council receives a detailed report on
         Capital Works progress every quarter.
Our Systems and Processes
        The use of online services continues to increase year on year. The proportion of payments
         continues to be high as cash payments are being limited due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
