Budget 2012-13;What's in it for Goodwood South?


Last Monday's meeting the budget was finally approved. The following are included in the budget. The final rate rise of 5.1% did not include an allowance for the Carbon Tax, these costs will have to be calclauted and savings identified to cover their cost as they arise. This Council should be able to know exactly what it is costing us so we can accurately predict the amount in the years to follow.
