Corporate management costs are activities undertaken in the normal running of an organisation and activities performed to satisfy federal or state governments. These costs will be allocated on a percentage basis (expenditure) to all core programs, as it will not be cost effective to develop any other method of allocation and it is difficult to obtain meaningful data. Costs that fall into this category are general management costs, 50% group support costs and councillor costs.

CEMETERY Note: ForತCouncil to repurchaseತunusedತburial plots,ತit will beತdependant on the grave location/accessibilty and will be calculated atತ 50% of current value or original purchase price whichever isತ greater. Plots can only be sold back to Council in accordance with the Cemeteries and Crematoria Act 2013 No 105 ತ Offences relating to conduct in cemeteries Section 70 Cemeteries and Crematoria Act 2013 No 105 A person must not, without lawful authority, in a cemetery: (a) disturb or interrupt any service, procession or cortege or (b) inter any human remains or scatter/inter ashes without permission from the grave owner and Council. ತ All burials/interments fees stated below are charged for Monday to Friday between the hours of 9.00am and 3.00pm. Other times are by arrangement and potential additional charge. Please note, genealogy searches can take between 5-10 working days unless for a request for burial. ತ Please note: Due to the geological rock within the cemetery, all graves are sold initially for a single depth grave. If a request is made for a double depth grave (for 2 full body interments) it is the Funeral Directors responsibility to ensure the family are aware this may not be possible. Council accepts NO liability if for any reason the Gravedigger is unable to reach a double depth. Gravediggers should employ a pre-dig strategy prior to the burial date to mitigate the risk. Council does not provide grave digging services, the grave digger must be approved by Council.

Castle Hill Cemetery Council does not supply grave digging services, monuments or brass plaques to place onto slopers. Purchase of new standard adult grave in the Monumental/Headstone Area

Pioneer Theatre Notes During cultural and commercial theatre performances, no other rooms in the Castle Hill Cultural Centre are available for hire by other hirers. ತ The Pioneer Theatre is provided under a “Dry Hire” arrangement, and no technical staff will be provided. Theatrical Lighting fixtures, lighting control systems, audio mixing consoles, microphones and communications systems can be provided to hirers as part of the hire, on the basis that the hirer or their AV contractor must have completed a technical induction prior to the day of event, and is responsible for the correct set-up, operation, and return of the equipment in good working order. If the suitability, configuration, orientation and operation of technical equipment is considered important or crucial to the delivery of your event, the hirer is responsible to engage a technical service provider to meet your needs. ತ Service of food policy for Pioneer Theatre: The Pioneer Theatre can be configured for Banquet Style events and Cabaret Performances utilising the theatres Banquet tables. In these modes, the venue can accommodate the full service of food and beverages within the theatre. Within the Foyer areas, the sale, service and consumption of beverages and dry snack style food is permitted. The consumption of plated foods (including hot foods, soups, rice or noodle boxes, cakes served on plates etc) is not permitted in the foyer areas. Should your event utilising the more standard theatre Mode style of set up also require the service of plated foods, you will be required to book the "Theatre mode with Food Service" option. This would also give you access to the Terrace area which can accommodate the service of plated foods, and the consumption of plated foods can then be done at the tables pre-set up in the additional rooms provided. You will be required to attend a site inspection 1-2 weeks prior to your event. ತ Other conditions: Venue must cease performances by 10pm on Sunday - Thursday and midnight on Friday/Saturday. Venue hire hours 7.30am - 10pm Sunday to Thursday, 7.30am - 12am Fridays, 8am - 12am Saturdays Only one booking per day allowed in Pioneer Room Weekly & Fortnightly Theatre Performances includes all rooms at Castle Hill Cultural Centre - other booking types only include Pioneer Room for the total fee, additional rooms at additional fees. During Weekly & Fortnightly theatre performances, no other rooms are available for hire. ತ Tribute, Wexford & Garden rooms are only hireable in conjunction with the Pioneer or Rebellion Room. ತ Event Organisers are responsible for the care of the performers, contractors, participants and attendees of their program in the case of a medical incident, including providing first aid and escalation to emergency services as required. Event Organisers are also responsible for the provision of first aid equipment appropriate to their activity, in sufficient quantities to cater for the number of participants in their programs.

Applications for hire during the closure period must be made prior to 14th December 2026 for consideration. b. An increased-risk security bond of $1,000.00 may apply to functions. Additional security measures may also be required at the discretion of the Venue Bookings Team where the nature of the function or the hirer is in a category of increased risk. A security bond of $1,000.00 applies to all 16 - 21 year birthday parties - no exceptions. Subject to a security assessment, a 2nd security guard maybe required at hirer cost as per the fees and charges. c. All users must comply by the terms and conditions relevant to their bookings. Any type of hire that is requested with less than 5 days' notice will be at Council's sole discretion for approval. d. Regular hire rates will apply to hirers using that venue at the same time for more than ten times during the financial year. Invoices are sent on the 1st of the month for the following month. Payment is required within two weeks of receiving your invoice (Payment required no later than 14th of the month). If payment is not received by the 14th of the month for the next month, your booking may be cancelled. If this occurs up to three times within the financial year, your Regular Hirer status will be removed, and you will be considered a casual hirer where payment must be made upfront for the remainder of the financial year. Additional bookings made within 30 days by regular hirers require payment to be made prior to use. Regular bookings will not be permitted at Castle Hill Cultural Centre or Pioneer Theatre. Regular tennis hire is defined as exclusive use by community members after 10 bookings per year, to a maximum of 5 hours per week. Additional hours per week will require evidence that the activity is social in nature and does not collect a fee beyond cost recovery by a social group for court hire fees. Should the evidence not be sufficient then the use will be classified as the provision of a commercial service and coaching fees will apply, with bookings approved on a month to month basis, if there is availability across the tennis court network. e. All other hirers are deemed to be casual hirers. Unless otherwise agreed by Council, all fees and bonds for casual hirers must be paid within 24 hours of approval of booking. f. Wet weather redundancy - in the event of adverse weather conditions and availability provides an opportunity for a change of venue, hirer could be moved with no penalty at Council's discretion. g. Council will not support any childcare or out of hours school care organisations, within our venues or community centres, due to our Regular Hire process only allowing up to 12 months of hire at one time h. Venue hire default hours are as per the Fees & Charges. Hire outside of these hours can be reviewed and approved at council discretion as per the development consent for the specific site. i. These fees, charges and terms of hire are only applicable for the financial year for which this document is published. i. ತAdvance ತbooking ತrequests ತmay ತbe ತconsidered ತto ತsecure ತshow ತlicensing ತagreements ತrequired ತfor ತperformances ತmade ತavailable ತto ತthe ತgeneral ತpublic ತand ತare ತconditional ತon ತsecuring ತthose agreements, a 10% deposit is payable to secure dates with the balance payable 30 days prior to the booking.

Refund policy - Cooling off period of 48 hours from acceptance of payment for casual hire - full refund will be granted. 2. In the event of a cancellation or transfer at Castle Hill Cultural Centre & Kellyville Memorial Park Function Room, 25% of any funds paid or due will be retained by Council. 3. Casual Bookings will receive a full refund if at least 30 days’ notice is provided less an administration fee of $40 per request. If less than 30 days notice is provided, the hirer may liable for the full hire fee. 4. Regular Bookings will receive a full refund if at least 30 days’ notice is provided. If less than 30 days notice is provided, the hirer may liable for the full hire fee. 5.

INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES Road Openings and Restorations General The road or footpath is not to be disturbed until a fee has been paid for each opening and a permit issued by Council. Road Opening Permits are not required by Utility Providers. However contractors undertaking works on behalf of Utility Providers are required to obtain and pay for a Permit where they cannot provide an undertaking from the Utility Provider. ತ Payment of the estimated restoration charge or the lodging of a deposit is required prior to the issuing of a Road OpeningತPermit. Utility Providers are exempt from this requirement. Any damage to the Council's assets caused by works undertaken in relation to a Road Openingತ must be restored by Council. Once final restorations are completed any discrepancy between the estimated and the actual restoration will be adjusted accordingly. All restoration charges shall be based on the actual quantity of work completed. ತ Cost reductions are offered on the basis of the volume of work to be undertaken at one specific location, ie one street address. More information on Road Openingತ and restoration of Council's assets is available at http:// www.thehills.nsw.gov.au/Council/Application-Form-Directory
