The $4.5 million YTD operating surplus comprises $1.7 million general operating surplus from
activities that are funded through Council’s general rate, regulatory fees and sales of goods and
services; as well an additional $1.9 million from waste operations and $0.9k in unspent levy and
separate charge funds which are constrained in reserve for future use. The general operating
surplus position is also augmented by a number of incomplete grant-funded programs.
