electrical contractor budget for the Noosa region for 12 months (incorporating figures from
Sunshine Coast Council budget) was $335,032 compared to $282,236 expenditure up to 31
May 2015.

This saving of $52,796 of electrical contractor works has been undertaken by Council’s in
house electrician. As this position commenced on the 23/02/2015 the total employee and

been achieved to date through undertaking work in-house that had previously been
outsourced.
