Frankston City Council Budget 2019–2020
Delivering vital services, programs and infrastructure for our community Council’s Annual Budget 2019–2020 has been adopted and will build on our strong foundation of key community services and support, from growing local arts and culture to providing for a safe, connected and inclusive community, basic but essential amenities such as sustainable waste management,
vital infrastructure for a growing city, support services for our most vulnerable community members and more. We consulted with our community on the draft budget in May, to give you the opportunity to see how your rates are being invested locally. We remained transparent and
accountable throughout the drafting process, ensuring we offered plenty of ways to provide feedback, including a budget information session hosted in April. Your invaluable feedback has helped to shape our investment in Frankston City over the coming 12 months and we thank everyone for their contribution.
Rates and charges to Frankston City residents make up 66 per cent of Council’s budgeted income and play a vital role in our ability to provide services, programs and infrastructure to our community. See pages 10 and 11 for a detailed breakdown of the 2019–2020 Budget.
