APPENDIX 9: LOWER NOOSA NORTH SHORE ELECTRICITY CHARGE
OVERALL PLAN


1.    Special Charge for Provision of Power to Noosa North Shore
Following representations from residents, Council has agreed to fund by loan the design and
construction costs to provide power to specified properties in Area A and B the Lower Noosa North
Shore.
The total cost of design and construction for Area A (the lots around Wygani Drive) was $390,785
excluding GST and the construction work was completed in the 2005/06 financial year.
The total cost of design and construction for Area B (the lots between Papertree Track and Frying
Pan Track) was $371,743 excluding GST, and the construction work was completed in the 2006/07
financial year.


2.    The Rateable Land to Which the Special Charge Applies
A special charge will be levied on each surveyed lot delineated on the map below to repay interest
and redemption on the loan. The loan repayments will be spread over a twenty-year period
commencing from the 2004/05 financial year for both areas.
Where property owners within the delineated area have opted to make a one off payment equivalent
to their proportionate share of the interest and loan redemption for the full 20-year period, as
calculated by Council, the levy will not apply.
Council considers that properties in Area A will be specially benefited by the provision of the loan
facility to fund the work and has resolved to levy an annual special charge of one thousand three
hundred and ninety-nine dollars ($1,399.00) equally on each surveyed lot.
In addition to this, Council considers that properties in Area B will be specially benefited by the
provision of the loan facility to fund the work and has resolved to levy an annual special charge of
one thousand nine hundred and ninety-six dollars ($1,996.00) equally on each surveyed lot.
