Setting of Rates: 2019/2020 8.1 Mr M J Nield, Director-Corporate Services, spoke to the memorandum, advising Members that having adopted the 2019/2020 Annual Plan on 21 May 2019, the purpose of this memorandum is to set the rates for the 2019/2020 financial year. The rates are driven from the adopted
surplus of $761,000 (total comprehensive income). Expenditure was $777,000 below budget while revenue was $238,000 above budget. This was a good result, noting that general rates had been raised by around 1.5% for each of the previous two years, which is well below inflation levels. The Council’s balance sheet remains very strong with no public debt. We gratefully acknowledge the efforts and achievements of Council staff during the year, ably governed by a team of Councillors providing
regional plan requirements. The non- compliance rate for failure to meet resource consent conditions was 6.6% for dairy farms, a small change from the previous year. The Council will continue to monitor farm dairy effluent systems closely to ensure compliance with the Council’s requirements. Complementing the agricultural monitoring programme, the Council inspected 221 minor industrial operations in 2013/2014. Minor industries include agricultural services, light engineering, panel beaters,
remain high for the Mt Messenger and Awakino projects. STRONG FINANCIAL POSITION The Council finished the 2015/2016 year with a surplus of $963,000 (total comprehensive income). Expenditure was $373,000 over budget, in large part due to the Council providing unbudgeted emergency funding to assist those in need following the severe winter storm damage. Overall it was a good result, noting that general rates increases have been at or below the rate of inflation
good level of administrative performance. STDC has advised council that the breaches in discharge rates at Opunake should be resolved by February 2020. The non-compliant breaches became apparent when council received the discharge data at the end of the monitoring year. For reference, in the 2018-2019 year, consent holders were found to achieve a high level of environmental performance and compliance for 83% of the consents monitored through the Taranaki tailored monitoring programmes,
production bore, abstraction pipework monitoring equipment and associated infrastructure; and obtaining manual measurements of groundwater levels in the production and observation bores and retrieving electronic data. To monitor the exercising of consent 7470-1.1 abstraction volume and rate data are recorded electronically at the site by a data logging system and transferred to the Council via telemetry, so the data can be viewed in real time. Three groundwater monitoring bores were also
monitor the exercising of consent 7470-1.1 abstraction volume and rate data is recorded electronically at the site by a datalogging system and is transferred to the Council via telemetry, so the data can be viewed in real time. Three groundwater monitoring bores were also installed within the vicinity of the production bore to monitor the effects of the abstraction on local groundwater levels. Groundwater levels within two of the monitoring bores (GND2102 and GND2103) are monitored electronically
Taking and use of groundwater ...........................................................................24 page page 5 1 Introduction Currently, the minor taking and use of surface and groundwater in the Taranaki region is a Permitted Activity within the Taranaki Regional Council’s Regional Freshwater Plan [“Plan”], subject to various conditions relating in the main to abstraction flow rates and daily volumes (refer Appendix One).
