Over the years Council has taken a

number of measures to overcome

the financial constraints that it faces.

It has now reached a stage where it

does not have any backlog of work

regarding bridges. As far as roads are

concerned, Council has developed a

detailed asset management plan and

is in the process of increasing rates by

about 3%, which will yield an additional

$1 million per year. This sum will be

utilised towards road maintenance

and reconstruction to ensure that

roads continue to be improved to meet

the expectations of the community.

After taking all these pre-emptive

steps and following a policy of prudently

managing its financial resources, Great

Lakes Council will be one of the few

Councils in New South Wales which

does not have any backlog of roads
