REVENUE

Non Operating Grants A non-operating grant of $316K is budgeted from Metropolitan Regional Road Group to part fund the Town’s 2017-18 Road resheeting Program. Rates The budget proposes $14,030,125 to be raised from rates. This represents an increase of 1% on rates levied last year and, with the addition of new properties, will provide an

Page 5: Overview of Budget 2017-18 - Town of Claremont - Home · Overview of Budget 2017-18 ... • builds on Reserves Funds by $0.99M ... increase in rate revenue of $230,369 or 1.67%

increase in rate revenue of $230,369 or 1.67%. A further $150,000 in interim rating is anticipated due to property revaluations during the 2017-18 year. Gross Rental Values (GRV) The last general revaluation of all properties within the Town was completed in the 2014-15 and, updated every three years, was recently completed by the Valuer Generals Office for use in the 2017-18 financial year. While the revaluation resulted in an overall decrease in valuation by 5.7%, further examination reveals the following; • Residential properties make up 92% of all rateable properties (4,859) and 68% of

total GRV ($223,034,442). The total GRV of residential properties decreased 8%. • Commercial properties make up 4.5% or all rateable properties and 26% of total

GRV. The total commercial GRV decreased 2%. • Industrial properties make up 1% of all rateable properties and 4% of total GRV. The

total industrial GRV decreased 1%. • Vacant land makes up 2% of all rateable properties and 1.7% of total GRV. The GRV

of all vacant land however increased 22%. As a consequence, while the rate increase has been set at 1.0% above last year’s rates, the impact of these variations will mean some properties will have a higher increase, some a lower increase, and some may even experience a reduction. Special Area Rates 2016-17 will be the fourth year the Town of Claremont has levied a Specified Area Rate on the commercial properties within the Central Business District (CBD). Matched by an equal contribution by the Town, $120,000 will be raised through this levy to assist the Business Improvement District board promote the CBD as a premier WA retail and hospitality precinct. Summary The 2017-18 Budget further continues to deliver the strategic objectives outlined in Council’s Strategic Community Plan and Asset Management Plan. It upholds the Town’s commitment to programmed delivery of key infrastructure, strategic investment and community development projects, while maintaining the diverse range of services to the community.
