Revenue Statement - 2023/24


1.3      Approach to Making/Levying Rates and Charges
Council has developed this Revenue Statement in accordance with its Revenue Policy, which aims
to raise revenue sufficient to enable it:
•     to deliver a budget that provides a robust financial basis for effective administration of
      expenditure and debt;
•     to provide services in a manner directed at safeguarding intergenerational equity within the
      community, i.e. by endeavouring to meet the needs of the present without compromising the
      ability of future generations to meet their needs;
•     to sustain its long-term operational capabilities;
•     to encourage the development of a vibrant and strong local economy served by appropriate
      infrastructure and facilities;
•     to provide certainty of funding for the provision of the infrastructure and services identified in
      its long-term strategic plans.

Council’s applies the following criteria to structuring its rates and charges:
•     pursuit of effectiveness and efficiency in meeting the objectives (financial, social, economic,
      and environmental, and other) in its Corporate Plan and policies;
•     pursuit of equity and fairness, including consistency, in the application of lawful rating and
      charging principles; in particular, avoiding bias, taking account of all relevant considerations,
      and disregarding irrelevancies, e.g. perceived personal wealth of ratepayers or ratepayer
      classes;
•     pursuit of clarity of expression and presentation, to optimise ratepayer and stakeholder
      comprehension; and
•     ensuring its revenue decisions support its financial strategies for responsible and maintainable
      delivery of the infrastructure and services consistently with its long-term planning.

Council seeks to meet those criteria in:
•     making, levying, and collecting its rates and charges;
•     granting and administering rating and charging concessions;
•     charging for its services and facilities;
•     charging for competitive services and facilities;
•     charging for business services and facilities (subject to National Competition Policy);
•     imposing cost-recovery fees; and
•     funding Council infrastructure.

In making all rates and charges Council will also have regard to:
•     transparency - to inform the community of the basis of those rates and charges and hence
      Council’s accountability;
•     creating a rating regime that is cost effective to administer;
•     flexibility - taking account of changes in the local economy.




                                                                                                  Page 4

Revenue Statement - 2023/24



2.       ADMINISTRATION
2.1       Issue of Rates Notices
Council will issue rate notices in July 2022 for the billing period 1 July 2023 to 31 December 2023
and in January 2023 for the billing period 1 January 2024 to 30 June 2024.

2.2       Adjustment of Rates and Charges
Supplementary rates notices for variations in rates and charges may be issued as required during
the financial year. It is the owner’s responsibility to check that all rates and charges are correct at
the time of the issue of the rate notice. Adjustments to rates and charges levied in prior financial
years will not be made.

2.3       Early Payment Discount
Discounts for prompt payments will be allowed on the rates and charges stipulated in Council's
Revenue Statement as having discounts applying to them. Such discounts are allowed pursuant to
section 130 of the Regulation.

          Method of Calculation
Subject to section 2.3.2 of this Revenue Statement, a 5% discount will be allowed on general rates
where the net amount shown on the rate notice is paid by the designated due date.
No discount is allowable on the following charges which may appear on the rates notice:
•     State Emergency Management Levy;
•     Special Rates and Charges;
•     Separate Rates and Charges;
•     Waste Management Charges;
•     Change of Ownership Fee;
•     Rate Notice Paper Fee;
•     Backflow Device Registration Fee;
•     Valuation Fee;
•     Holding Tank Charges ;
•     Any property charge relating to the provision of temporary services or the carrying out of Council
      works on or in connection with the property;
•     Any non-rate item included on the rate notice;
•     Legal costs incurred by Council in rate and charge collection;
•     Interest charges on overdue rates and charges; and
•     Any other rate, charge or amount unless a discount is specifically permitted by this Revenue
      Statement.

          Payments Made Before the Due Date
A discount shall be allowed where full payment of the current period rates and charges, plus any
overdue rates and charges and interest thereon, is received before the first working day following
the due date. This shall apply to all payments made at a Council office, an approved agency, or by
electronic means. For payments made through an approved agent or by electronic means the
payment is deemed to be received on the transaction date provided by the approved agent or
relevant financial institution.

          Allowance of Early Payment Discount for Late Payments
There are occasions when payment by the due date is not achieved through circumstances beyond
the control of the ratepayer and section 130(10) of the Regulation provides Council with
a discretionary power to allow discount in such circumstances.

                                                                                                  Page 5

Page 6

Revenue Statement - 2023/24


2.3.3.1 Payments Made after the Due Date
The discount will be allowed if the full payment of the overdue rates and charges is made within a
period specified by Council and the applicant provides proof satisfactory to Council of any of the
following:
•   illness involving hospitalisation and/ or incapacitation of the ratepayer at or around the due date
    for payment;
•   the death or major trauma (accident/ life threatening illness/ emergency operation) of the
    ratepayer and/ or family members (spouse/ children/ parents) at or around the due date for
    payment;
•   the loss of records resulting from factors beyond the ratepayer’s control (Fire/ Flood etc.),
and Council is satisfied that the event was the cause of the ratepayer’s failure to make full payment
by the due date.

2.3.3.2 Late Payments Due to Delivery Difficulties
The discount will be allowed following non-receipt of the rates notice by the ratepayer, or the non-
receipt or late receipt of the rates payment by Council, where the reason for such non-receipt or late
receipt is separately substantiated by:
•   a written statement from the ratepayer detailing non receipt of the rates notice, provided a
    discount has not been allowed on a previous late payment in similar circumstances in the last
    five (5) years; or
•   other evidence that payment of the rates was made by the ratepayer at the time, but did not
    reach Council due to circumstances beyond the control of the ratepayer; or
•   where an administrative error occurred at the Department of Resources, which resulted in the
    rates notice being incorrectly addressed by Council.
The discount also may be allowed if substantiated by evidence that the return of the rate notice to
Council although correctly addressed is through no fault or instigation of the ratepayer and beyond
the ratepayer’s reasonable control.
The discount will not be allowed if the circumstances above are result from:
•   the failure of the ratepayer to ensure that Council was given correct notification of the postal
    address for service of notices prior to the issue of the rate notices; or
•   the failure of the ratepayer to ensure that Council was given the correct notification of the email
    address for service of the notices prior to the issue of the rate notices where the option for
    delivery by electronic means has been selected; or
•   a change of ownership, where Council received notification of the change of ownership after the
    issue of the rates notice.

2.3.3.3 Administrative Errors
An extended discount period will be allowed if Council has failed correctly to issue the rates notice
in sufficient time to permit the ratepayer to make payment before the expiration of the discount
period. The extended discount period will be equivalent to that period provided to other ratepayers
and will commence from the date Council specifies.

2.3.3.4 Payment Errors
Where there is an apparent accidental short payment of the rates resulting from a miscalculation of
the net amount due, arising from the payment of a number of rate notices at one time (i.e. addition
error) or the tendering of an incorrect amount for a single rate notice (i.e. transposition error), the
discount will be allowed in the following manner:
•     Where the amount of the error is $50.00 or less:
      Full discount will be allowed and the underpaid amount will be treated as ‘Arrears of Rates’.

                                                                                                 Page 6

Page 7

Revenue Statement - 2023/24


•     Where the amount of the error exceeds $50.00:
      The ratepayer will be advised in writing of the error and given 14 days to pay the shortfall. If
      the shortfall is paid by the extended due date so advised, the full discount will be allowed at
      that time.
Allowance of discount in these circumstances will not be allowed if any transposition error or addition
error exceeds 20% of the total net rates payable on the single rate notice or the number of rate
notices paid at one time.

2.4       Pensioner Concessions
Council’s pensioner rate concession to eligible pensioners will be allowed under chapter 4, part 10
of the Regulation.

          Eligibility Criteria
The pensioner:
1.    Must comply with eligibility criteria contained in the Queensland Government’s Pensioner Rate
      Subsidy Scheme and must possess a current, valid qualifying concession card, namely:
      •    Pensioner Concession Card issued by Centrelink or the Department of Veteran Affairs or
      •    Repatriation Health (Gold) Card - (for all Conditions) issued by the Department of Veteran
           Affairs; and
2.    Must be the owner (either solely or jointly), or be an eligible life tenant, in accordance with the
      guidelines for the State Government Rate Subsidy Scheme, of property within the local
      government area, which is their principal place of residence, and must have (either solely or
      with a co-owner) the legal responsibility for payment of rates and charges Council levies in
      respect of the property; and
      In the case of joint ownership or ownership in common, the concession will apply only to the
      approved pensioner’s proportionate share of the applicable rates and charges, except where
      the co-owners are an approved pensioner and his/ her spouse. The concession will apply to
      the full amount of applicable rates and charges; and
3.    Must, if a ‘first time’ applicant, lodge and complete the prescribed application, to become
      entitled to a rate concession. The information on this application form will be used by Council
      to verify the eligibility of all pensioners (Centrelink and Veteran Affairs pension recipients).
      Upon proof of eligibility, the entitlement to a concession will commence from either the card
      start date shown on the Pensioner Concession Card or the date of occupation of their principal
      place of residence or the start date of the current rating period, whichever is the latest. Such
      entitlement shall continue until the sale of that property or until the entitlement to a pension
      ceases to exist; and
4.    Must, if an ‘existing’ applicant, lodge another application if required by Council or on the
      acquisition of a replacement property within the shire. Entitlements to a concession will
      continue without interruption if such application is received within a month of the request for
      a new application or of the property settlement.

          Method of Calculation
The concession shall be 25% of the general rate up to a maximum amount of $230.00 per annum,
$115.00 per half year.




                                                                                                   Page 7

Page 8

Revenue Statement - 2023/24


2.5      Outstanding Rates and Charges
         Interest Charges
Interest will be applied to all overdue rates or charges pursuant to sections 132 and 133 of the
Regulation. The interest will be compound interest, calculated on daily rests. For a day on or after
1 July 2023 the interest rate will be 11.64% per annum.

         Arrangements to Pay
Arrangements pursuant to section 129 of the Regulation, for payment by instalments, will be entered
for properties where there are no overdue rates and charges from previous rating periods and the
ratepayer and Council agree that such arrangements will allow the outstanding rates or charges
payable to be paid by the end of the current billing period.
An application for an instalment payment arrangement should be received by Council prior to 31 July
2023 or 31 January 2024. Under an instalment arrangement no discount will be provided for rates
which are due. Repayments will be calculated as at the time of applying for an arrangement and will
not incur interest charges.
Where a ratepayer defaults on an arrangement to pay, the arrangement will be cancelled, and
interest will be charged on the overdue rates and charges in accordance with section 2.5.1 of this
Revenue Statement from the date of default. Additionally, Council will not enter any further
arrangements during the rating period covered by the initial arrangement request.


2.6      Deferment of General Rates
Chapter 4 Part 10 of the Regulation allows Council to grant a rating concession to certain ratepayers
by entering an agreement to defer the payment of rates and charges.
Pursuant to section 120(1)(a), section 121(b) and section 122(1)(b) of the Regulation, Council may
allow eligible pensioners to enter an agreement to defer the payment of rates.

         Deferment for Pensioners
To assist eligible pensioners who have experienced large increases in the value of their property as
determined by the Department of Resources or have experienced financial hardship, Council will
allow deferment of up to 50% of the general rate. The deferred rates will accumulate as a debt
against the property until it is sold or until the death of the ratepayer.
The deferment of general rates applies only to rates payable with respect to land included in
Differential General Rates Categories 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 22, 23, and 25 to 30.
To be eligible to defer up to 50% of the general rate the applicant must:
•     own and occupy the property; and
•     have no overdue rates and charges on the property; and
•     be the holder of a Pension Concession Card issued by Centrelink or the Department of Veteran
      Affairs; or
•     a Repatriation Health (Gold) Card issued by the Department of Veteran Affairs; or
•     a Commonwealth Seniors Health Card; or
•     a Queensland Seniors Card issued by the Queensland State Government.
Note that automatic eligibility applies to those ratepayers currently receiving a Pension Concession
on their rate notice. Eligibility for those ratepayers with a Seniors Card will be assessed accordingly.

         Deferred General Rates Interest Charges
Interest charges, or the payment of an additional charge, will be applied to all deferred general rates
under Section 122(5) of the Regulation. The interest shall be compound interest, calculated in daily

                                                                                                  Page 8

Revenue Statement - 2023/24


rests. The interest rate shall be set at the 90-day bank bill rate as at the adoption of the 2023/24
Budget.

              Application to Defer
Ratepayers will be required to apply for a deferment of the general rate. Upon approval of the
application the deferment agreement will continue until Council is notified in writing to cease the
agreement, or until such time as the property is sold, or upon the death of the ratepayer, or until the
due date for payment as specified in the provisions of the deferment agreement.


2.7           General Rate Exemptions and Concessions
              General Rate Exemptions
By section 93(3) of the Act, certain land is exempt from general rates. Section 73 of the Regulation
further details land that is exempt in accordance with section 93(3)(j)(ii) of the Act.
In applying these sections of the Act and the Regulation, Council will be guided by the principle of
engaging in communication to raise the awareness of target groups that may qualify for these
exemptions.
By section 73 of the Regulation, the following land is exempted from rating for section 93(3)(j)(ii) of
the Act:
(a)   land owned by a religious entity if the land is less than 20ha and is used for 1 or more of the
      following purposes:
      (i)       religious purposes, including, for example, public worship;
      (ii)      the provision of education, health or community services, including facilities for aged
                persons and persons with disabilities;
      (iii)     the administration of the religious entity;
      (iv)      housing incidental to a purpose mentioned in paragraph (i), (ii) or (iii);
(b)   land vested in, or placed under the management and control of, a person under an Act for:
      (i)       a public purpose that is a recreational or sporting purpose; or
      (ii)      a charitable purpose;
(c)   land used for purposes of a public hospital if:
      (i)       the public hospital is
                (A)   part of a private hospital complex; or
                (B)   a private and public hospital complex; and
      (ii)      the land used for the purposes is more than 2ha and is separated from the rest of the
                complex;
(d)   land owned by a community organisation if the land is less than 20ha and is used for providing
      the following:
      (i)       accommodation associated with the protection of children;
      (ii)      accommodation for students;
      (iii)     educational, training or information services aimed at improving labour market
                participation or leisure opportunities;
(e)   land used for a cemetery.

              General Rate Concessions
In addition to those classes of land granted a general rate exemption as outlined in section 2.7.1
above, Council also provides general rates concessions to land deemed eligible in accordance with
Council’s General Rate Donation policy.

                                                                                                 Page 9

Page 10

Revenue Statement - 2023/24


Applications received during the 2023/24 year that meet the policy eligibility requirements will be
granted a general rate concession for the year. Property owners must immediately notify Council if
there is a substantive change of land use for a property in receipt of a general rate concession.


2.8      Fees and Charges
Section 97 of the Act allows a local government to fix a cost recovery fee and section 172(1) (c) of
the Regulation provides that the Revenue Statement must state the criteria used to decide the
amount of any cost recovery fees. All fees and charges will be set with reference to cost reflective
pricing. Cost recovery fees will be charged up to a maximum of full cost.
Any non-profit, volunteer, charitable, community, sporting, or religious organisation not in possession
of a permanent liquor or gaming licence or a surf lifesaving club (or similar organisation) in
possession of a permanent liquor licence is eligible for a single discount of 50% reduction in
development application fees.
Section 172(1) (d) of the Regulation provides that if the local government conducts a business
activity the Revenue Statement must state the criteria used to decide the amount of the charges for
the activity’s goods and services. Commercial charge setting will have considered the competitive
neutrality principle for a business activity conducted by Council and all commercial charges for the
2023/24 financial year are set out in the Register of General Cost-Recovery Fees and Commercial
Charges 2023/24 as adopted.

3.      GENERAL RATES
3.1       Basis of Rates
Section 94 of the Act requires Council to levy general rates on all rateable land within the Noosa
Shire local government area. Pursuant to section 74 of the Regulation, the rates will be calculated
using the rateable value of the land.
Pursuant to chapter 4, part 5 of the Regulation, Council will use a system of differential general rating
for the 2023/24 financial year. Council will not make a resolution limiting the increases in general
rates for the 2023/24 financial year.

3.2       Rates to Apply
The applicable rates for the 2023/24 financial year are identified in Table 2 Schedule of Rates, as
adopted in the 2023/24 Council budget. The rate shall apply to the rateable value of lands which
are within the Noosa Shire as provided by the Department of Resources.

          Differential General Rates
For the purpose of making and levying differential general rates for the financial year, Council
determines, for section 81 of the Regulation, that:
(i)    the categories into which rateable land in the Shire is to be categorised are set out in column 1,
       table 1 (below); and
(ii)   the descriptions of each category of rateable land are set out in column 2, table 1.
For subsections 81(4) and (5), Council delegates to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) the power to
identify the rating category to which each parcel of rateable land in the local government area
belongs. The identification of land in column 3, table 1 is for guidance only.

          Minimum General Rates
Council has applied the rate in the dollar and minimum general rate levy as indicated in Schedule of
Rates Table 2. Minimum general rates are levied pursuant to section 77 of the Regulation.

          Objecting to a Differential General Rate Categorisation
In accordance with section 90(2) of the Regulation, the only ground for objecting to a rating
categorisation is that the owner considers the land should belong to a different rate category.
In accordance with section 90(3), the owner may object by giving the local government an objection
notice. Section 90(4) details what the notice must contain. The notice must be in the form Council
has approved.
Section 90(5) requires the owner to give the objection notice within:
(a)    30 days after the day when the rate notice was issued; or
(b)    a longer period that Council allows.
Council will only accept objections to a rates category within the financial year for which the rates
are levied.
In accordance with section 91(5) of the Regulation: if the CEO decides to change the rating category
of the land, the rating category is taken to have been changed from the start of the period to which
the relevant rate notice relates.
No objections for rates levied in previous financial years will be accepted; consequently no
adjustments for rates levied in previous financial years will be made on the basis of incorrectly
categorised land.




                                                                                                  Page 13

Revenue Statement - 2023/24


         Hardship
Where a landowner:
(a)   has a property that is included in differential general rate category 9 or 21; and
(b)   is using the property to provide accommodation to a member of their immediate family, and
(c)   the family member being housed has special circumstances such as a physical or mental
      disability or safety and privacy concerns that preclude ownership of the property in their name
      as a viable option.
Council may grant a concession to the ratepayer on the basis of hardship.


3.3      Discounts
An early payment discount as mentioned in section 2.3 and council pensioner concessions as
mentioned in section 2.4 shall be applied to this rate for qualifying ratepayers.

5.      UTILITY CHARGES
5.1      Waste Management Charge
         Basis of Charge
Section 94(1)(b)(ii) of the Act permits the levy of waste management charges for the purpose of
defraying the costs of operating, maintaining and managing the disposal of waste in the Noosa Shire.
The term “bin” in Sections 5.1.3 to 5.1.10 describes a “standard general waste container” specified
in Local Law No 7 (Waste Management) 2018.


         Charges to Apply
Charges shall apply to all properties within the defined waste collection area and the defined
recycling collection area of the shire where solid waste and recycling collection services are, or can
be made available. Services shall be provided in all cases sufficient to cater for the quantity and
types of waste generated at each property.
Council will levy the charges on properties presently serviced, able to be serviced or commencing a
service in the defined waste collection service areas and on existing and new properties as Council
extends the defined service area.
Single dwellings and duplexes within the defined garden waste collection service area delineated in
the maps below will be charged a garden waste collection service unless exempted under Section
5.1.4.

         Inclusions
For single dwellings and duplexes within the defined garden waste collection area Council will
provide a 240 litre waste bin collected weekly, a 240 litre recycling bin and 240 litre garden waste
recycling bin (each collected fortnightly on alternative weeks).
An optional 240 litre or 360 litre garden waste recycling bin collected fortnightly is also available to
properties other than single dwelling and duplexes within the defined garden waste collection area.
For properties outside the defined garden waste collection area Council will provide a 240 litre waste
bin collected weekly, and a 240 litre recycling bin collected fortnightly, to those properties that are
able to be serviced.
An optional 240 litre or 360 litre garden waste recycling bin collected fortnightly is also available to
any property within 5 kilometres of the defined garden waste service area.
Additional service capacity can be requested – see 5.1.7 and 5.1.11 for the applicable charges.
A maximum load limit of 2,500 kilograms applies to all bulk waste and bulk recycling bin services.

         Exclusions
That land which is owned or otherwise under the control of the Council but not leased; or that land
which is specifically excluded from the provision of such a service by Council.
The owner of a single dwelling or duplex located in the mandated garden waste service area may
make application for an exemption from the garden waste recycling service if:




                                                                                                 Page 32

Revenue Statement - 2023/24


•     The owner provides evidence that the area of the land on which their dwelling or duplex is
      situated (including common areas in community titles complexes) is 400 square metres or less,
      or
•     The owner provides evidence that they employ a gardening contractor who regularly removes
      all garden waste from the property to Council’s resource recovery facility or other approved
      location.
Service cancellations are not permitted for properties that are intermittently occupied such as holiday
homes, or temporarily vacant premises awaiting sale or rental occupancy. Such premises, which
are intermittently occupied for a portion of the year, are required to pay the full annual charge.

           Minimum Charge
A minimum charge equivalent to $220.50 per annum shall apply to all properties receiving a waste
service. For example, where a bulk waste service is shared by strata / group titled units instead of
individual waste bins, a minimum charge per unit equivalent to $220.50 per annum shall be applied.

           Adjustment of Waste Management Charges
Where the number of bins or frequency of service is altered at any time during the financial year a
supplementary rates notices may be issued.
Service cancellations are permitted in the following circumstances:
•     Following demolition of premises – pro-rata adjustments allowed; or
•     Premises that will be vacant for a full year and will not be intermittently occupied, or offered for
      sale or rent. Cancellation must be made in the form required by Council (Note: If services are
      cancelled and occupancy subsequently occurs during the financial year, the full annual charge
      shall apply.)
Service cancellations for the garden waste bin service that is not part of the 3 bin service may be
requested at any time; however a pro rata refund will not be provided (no refund applies for a service
cancelled when paying a rate notice).
It is the owner’s responsibility to check that all waste management charges are correct at the time of
the issue of the rate notice. Council will not adjustment waste management charges levied in prior
financial years.

           Calculation of Residential Charges (wheelie bins)
All charges shall be in accordance with the charge table details as listed below.

6.      SEPARATE RATES AND CHARGES

Section 94(1) (b) (iii) of the Act permits the levy of separate rates and charges. A separate rate or
charge must be, and will be, levied equally upon all rateable land in the Noosa Shire local
government area.


6.1      Environment Levy
         Basis of Charge
The Environment Levy, a separate charge, shall be made and levied for the 2023/24 financial year
on all rateable land in the Noosa Shire local government area to fund the costs of a range of
environmental initiatives including:
•     The acquisition of land (including an interest in land) identified as suitable for conservation
      purposes, and the maintenance and environmental restoration of that land.
•     Supporting private land conservation partnerships (such as Land for Wildlife and Voluntary
      Conservations Agreement programs), where such involvement is in keeping with the purpose
      of the levy.
•     Funding of management and administrative arrangements for the Noosa Biosphere Reserve.
•     An environmental grants program for collaborative community-based initiatives, capacity
      building and/or research projects that are in keeping with the purpose of the levy.
•     Supporting significant environmental projects and programs related to key Council strategies
      and plans, that protect, enhance and increase the resilience of Noosa’s natural environment.

         Charge to Apply
The charge for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 shall be $70.00.

         Basis of Charge Calculation
Council considers that the benefit to any particular rateable land from the range of strategic
environmental management initiatives listed in 6.1.1 cannot be distinguished from the benefit to any
other particular rateable land. All rateable land in the Shire will benefit from the range of
environmental initiatives listed in 6.1.1 that are funded by the charge. Accordingly the separate
charge will be levied equally on all rateable land in the shire.

         Discounts

The Sustainable Transport Levy, a separate charge, will be made and levied for the 2023/24 financial
year on all rateable land in the Noosa Shire local government area to meet the costs of a range of
services and initiatives related to transport and transport related initiatives that have the purpose of
reducing traffic congestion and demand on the Noosa road network. The funding is primarily aimed
at sustainably managing congestion and reducing demand for increased capacity on the road
network and car parking. Initiatives may include, but are not necessarily limited to:
•     Entering into partnerships with other tiers of Government to investigate, trial and / or deliver
      sustainable transport services.
•     Supporting public transport services through the provision of new or improvements to existing
      kerb-side and public transport infrastructure such as bus shelters and facilities at transport
      hubs.
•     Establishing and operating transport systems such as park and ride facilities or shuttle bus
      services.
•     Investigating, acquiring and operating intelligent transport systems to manage congestion and
      inform motorists and transport users.
•     Provision of behaviour change programs including, for example, school based programs to
      reduce congestion.
•     Provision of flexible transport services to meet demonstrated community need.

         Charge to Apply
The charge for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 shall be $30.00 per rateable property.

         Basis of Charge Calculation
Council considers that the benefit to any particular rateable land from the funding of sustainable
transport services and initiatives cannot be distinguished from the benefit to any other particular
rateable land. All rateable land in the Shire will benefit from the range of services and initiatives that
are funded by the charge. Accordingly the separate charge will be levied equally on all rateable land
in the shire.

         Discounts
An early payment discount as shown in section 2.3 and Council pensioner concessions as shown in
section 2.4 will not apply to this charge.




                                                                                                   Page 40

         Basis of Charge
The Heritage Levy, a separate charge, shall be made and levied for the 2023/24 financial year on all
rateable land in the Noosa Shire to fund a cultural heritage program for the management, protection

•     Heritage Projects: to fund heritage projects and initiatives by Council or in partnership with the
      community.
•     Heritage Co-ordination and Advice: to undertake routine heritage coordination and engage
      heritage professionals, architects, advisors or consultants as required.
•     Heritage Sector Sustainability: to undertake activities which assist or support the ongoing
      sustainability and development of local organisations with a focus on heritage.

         Charge to Apply
The applicable annual charge for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 will be $10.00.

         Basis of Charge Calculation
Council considers that the benefit to any particular rateable land from the establishment of a heritage
program for the management, protection and improvement of the shire’s heritage, which includes
initiatives listed in 6.3.1, cannot be distinguished from the benefit to any other particular rateable
land. All rateable land in the Shire will benefit from the implementation of the heritage program and
from the implementation of the initiatives listed in 6.3.1, all of which will be funded by the charge.
Accordingly a separate charge of $10.00 per annum is to be levied equally on all rateable land in the
shire.

         Discounts
An early payment discount as shown in section 2.3 and Council pensioner concessions as shown in
section 2.4 will not apply to this charge.

financial year on all rateable land in the Noosa Shire, to fund a range of services and initiatives
related to a bushfire management prevention and response program directed at reducing bushfire

The rate for the financial year ending 30 June 2024 will be 0.0027 cents in the $ of rateable value,
with a minimum of $10.00 per annum as adopted in the 2023/24 budget.

         Basis of Charge Calculation
Council considers that the benefit to any particular rateable land from the establishment of a bushfire
resilience and response program cannot be distinguished from the benefit to any other particular
rateable land. All rateable land in the Shire will benefit from the implementation of the bushfire
resilience and response program and from the implementation of the initiatives listed in 6.4.1, all of
which will be funded by the separate rate. Accordingly a separate rate of 0.0027 cents in the dollar,
with a minimum of $10.00 per annum, is to be levied equally on all rateable land in the shire.

An early payment discount as shown in section 2.3 and Council pensioner concessions as shown in

APPENDIX 3: NOOSA JUNCTION LEVY
OVERALL PLAN

1.    Special Levy for the Development of a Commercial Strategy for Noosa Junction.
Following requests from the Noosa Junction Traders Association and Noosa Junction property
owners in 2007, the former Noosa Council agreed to engage consultants to undertake a study and
develop a Commercial Strategy for Noosa Junction in 2008. During the 2008/09 financial year the
Noosa Junction Traders Association requested the Sunshine Coast Regional Council to begin
implementation of the recommendations of the Noosa Junction Commercial and Economic Planning
Strategy (NJCEPS) and this has continued over subsequent years.
Council has received a further request from the Association to continue to fund projects and
initiatives that will be implemented in 2023/24 to advance the recommendations of the Noosa
Junction Commercial and Economic Planning Strategy.

2.    The Rateable Land to Which the Special Rates Applies
Properties subject to the special rate fall within the area delineated on the map below.




                                                                                           Page 46

3.    Service, facility or Activity
The Noosa Junction Association will, in consultation with Council, implement projects and initiatives
as set out in the 2023/24 Work Plan including recommendations of the Noosa Junction Commercial
and Economic Planning Strategy. Council will provide levy funding to the Noosa Junction
Association for that Association to implement those projects and initiatives on the basis that the
Noosa Junction Association satisfies Council that is has in place the appropriate governance
arrangements and that the 2023/24 Work Plan has been approved by Council before any levy funds
are transferred to and expended by the Noosa Junction Association.

4.    The Estimated Cost of Implementing the Overall Plan
The Noosa Junction Levy will raise $181,300 in the 2023/24 financial year. This amount will be
insufficient to implement all the recommendations of the NJCEPS so the Noosa Junction Traders
Association will seek to raise funds from other sources including membership fees.

5.    Estimated Time for Implementing the Overall Plan
The estimated time for carrying out the overall plan is by 30 June 2024. It is anticipated that a levy
will be made in future years as the service, facility and activities are on-going programs.




                                                                                               Page 47

APPENDIX 8: NOOSA JUNCTION STREETSCAPE LEVY
OVERALL PLAN

1.    Special Levy for the Development of a Noosa Junction Streetscape Project
Following requests from the Noosa Junction Association and Noosa Junction property owners,
Council has agreed to work with the Noosa Junction Association to develop a plan for the re-
development of the streetscape in the Noosa Junction locality. The project commenced in 2019/20
but was put on hold during the Covid-19 pandemic, and will now recommence. During the 2023/24
financial year Council will again work with the Noosa Junction Association to scope the street scaping
work to be undertaken and the anticipated cost of those works. The funds raised by this special levy
will be applied to this scoping and costing work.

2.    The Rateable Land to Which the Special Rates Applies
Properties subject to the special rate fall within the area delineated on the map below.




3.    Service, facility or Activity
The service, facility or activity to be undertaken for the special benefit of the rateable land to which
this special rate applies is the undertaking of work to determine the scope of street scaping work to
be undertaken and the anticipated cost of those works. Those properties that are the subject of the
special rate derive special benefit from this work due to service, facility or activity being undertaken
to plan for streetscape in work in the Noosa Junction area.




                                                                                                 Page 57

4.    The Estimated Cost of Implementing the Overall Plan
The levy will raise $525,000 over three financial years from 2023/24 to 2025/26 financial years. This
amount will be used to develop a plan for the re-development of the streetscape in the Noosa
Junction locality. This plan will outline the scope of street scaping work to be undertaken and the
anticipated cost of those works. At the end of that scoping stage, Council and the Noosa Junction
Association will together determine whether or not the street scaping project will proceed and if so,
how that project will be managed and funded (including funding via a special levy)
7.




5.    Estimated Time for Implementing the Overall Plan
The estimated time for carrying out the overall plan is by 30 June 2024. It is anticipated that a levy
will be made in future years if Council (in consultation with the Noosa Junction Association)
determines that the street scaping project for Noosa Junction will proceed.




                                                                                               Page 58
