Draft Budget open for submissions

Published on 24 April 2024

The Borough of Queenscliffe has endorsed Council’s 2023-24 Draft Budget for the purposes of community consultation. This Draft Budget outlines the expenditure and resources required to achieve the strategic objectives of the Council Plan.

A budget is one of the most important documents Council is responsible for. It sets out proposed priorities for the coming year and how they will be met.

Purposely focusing on key strategic objectives, the draft budget is set to support community well-being, protect our environment, and address climate change. There’s commitment to protect our distinctive coastal, cultural, and built environments, and to maintain sustainable, suitable infrastructure that stands the test of time.

Community members are invited to make submissions on the documents from Friday the 26th April, until Friday the 24th of May 2024. Submissions can be made in writing to info@queenscliffe.vic.gov.au or by post to 50 Learmonth Street, Queenscliff VIC 3225.
