Your feedback has shifted some of the Shire’s priorities, objectives and the overall vision for Shire of Mundaring. The vision is: A sense of space, a sense of place. The Strategic Community Plan, titled Mundaring 2026, has been used as a guide in creating this Corporate Business Plan. The Corporate Business Plan is an internal business planning tool which translates the community vision and priorities into the resourced services, operations and projects that the Shire will deliver over the next four years. We have been committed to creating a Corporate Business Plan that balances services and projects with the community’s affordability concerns. Over the next four years the Shire will continue to bring to fruition its largest capital works program in a generation. Key projects include: • • • • construction of Boya Community Hub (including replacement library and community meeting space) construction of Mundaring Indoor Recreation Facility transportable change room at Harry Riseborough Oval access upgrade at Darlington Hall. I look forward to the completion of the above projects and to reporting back to the community on these and other achievements we expect to deliver as detailed in this Corporate Business Plan.

Shire of Mundaring Corporate Business Plan 5 Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework The Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework (Framework), through the Strategic Community plan (SCP) assists local governments in establishing the community’s vision and priorities and linking them to resourced operational functions. All of the Shire’s corporate plans and strategies link back to the community’s vision and strategic themes as outlined in the Shire of Mundaring 2026 Strategic Community Plan. Involved in the development of Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework documents are: Community – participates in a community planning process to determine the major vision or intended big picture directions and also participates in regular reviews of those directions. Council – endorses the Strategic Community Plan resulting from the community planning process, the four year corporate business plan, long term financial plan and annual budget. Local government administration – supports delivery of the Strategic Community Plan through its corporate business planning, which identifies the resources services, operations and projects that the Shire will deliver. The Strategic Community Plan sets the scene for the whole Framework. The Strategic Community Plan Mundaring 2026 was developed after extensive consultation with the Community in 2015 and 2016. It was adopted by Council in May 2016. Shire of Mundaring Corporate Business Plan 6 The Vision, Strategic Themes and Objectives of the Plan are outlined below. The Corporate Business Plan (CBP) is a key part of the Framework, which establishes mechanisms to review and report on all elements of the integrated strategic planning process. The CBP is an internal business planning tool which translates the community vision and priorities into the resourced services, operations and projects that the Shire will deliver over the next four years. The CBP is fully integrated with the Asset Management Plans (AMP), Work Force Plan (WFP) and the Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP). All plans are reviewed annually. Shire of Mundaring Corporate Business Plan 7 How the Shire is governed Council Under The Local Government Act 1995 a local government consists of a Council, comprised of elected members, and the administration, consisting of the CEO and employees. The Shire President and Councillors are the Shire’s elected members and form the Council. The Shire is governed by 12 elected members who elect a Shire President. Council’s role is to govern the local government’s affairs and be responsible for the performance of the local government’s functions. It must oversee the allocation of the local government’s finances and resources and determine the local government’s policies. Shire of Mundaring consists of four wards: South, West, Central and East. Shire of Mundaring Corporate Business Plan 8 Shire Administration The CEO is the only employee appointed by Council and is therefore ultimately accountable to Council. The role of the CEO includes: • advising Council in relation to the functions of the local government • implementing Council decisions • managing the day-to-day operations of the local government and the services the local government provides for its community. The Shire’s four Directors are designated as senior employees. All employees are accountable to the CEO. The Shire’s Executive Leadership Team (left to right) comprises Paul O’Connor, Director Corporate Services; Megan Griffiths, Director Strategic and Community Services; Jonathan Throssell, Chief Executive Officer; Mark Luzi, Director Statutory Services; and Shane Purdy, Director Infrastructure Services.

Funding from rates • Forecast revenue from rates in 2016/17 is $26.26 million, which is a 4.35% increase in the rate yield from 2015/16. The rate yield is derived from a 3% increase in the rate in the dollar plus an assumption of 0.5% rates growth during 2016/17 (derived from an estimated increase in the number of rateable properties constructed in the Shire). • The remaining three years of the CBP forecast increases in the rate yield of 5.5%, 4.5% and 4.35%. • Year five of the LTFP forecasts an increase in the rate yield of 4.3%. • Years six to nine of the LTFP forecasts an increase in the rate yield of 3%. • Year 10 of the LTFP forecasts an increase in the rates yield of 2.5%. Balanced Budget • Budgets remain in surplus and there are no deficit budgets forecast. Liquidity • Ensures that Reserve funds are fully cash backed, including $16.4 million in reserves available for community infrastructure projects by year 10 of the LTFP. Sustainability • Ensures that Shire assets are properly maintained and adequate asset replacements are made in terms of the SCP and Asset Management Plans. • Reviews existing services to ensure they meet community needs. • Ensures debt service coverage ratio is within or better than the benchmark standard target. • Addresses the Shire’s current situation of a negative operating surplus ratio. This ratio is forecast to improve and become positive in year four (2019/20) of the LTFP. Financial Assumptions Rating base growth 0.5% Cash Rate Inflation Employee Costs 1.75% 2.25% (17/18) 3.25%(16/17) 2.5% (18/19 to 20/21) 2% (17/18 to 19/20) Shire of Mundaring Corporate Business Plan 13 The chart below shows the forecast income, expenditure, cash balances and loan funding over the four years of the CBP.

The Strategy sets out an overall framework within which dealing with its freehold property can be undertaken. Proceeds from sale of the Morrison/Farrall roads site in Midvale is earmarked towards the construction costs of Boya Community Hub, including replacement library and community meeting space at Boya Oval. Items proposed to be funded from Civic Facilities Reserve Darlington Community Pavilion Council has resolved to support this project in principle (C9.01.06). This is subject to the Darlington Sports and Recreation Association (WA) Inc demonstrating full funding for the project prior to proceeding to construction. As the timeline for this project commencing is subject to the group achieving the full funding for the project, it is proposed to draw the Shire’s funding for the earthworks and effluent disposal from the Civic Facilities Reserve, rather than from municipal funding. This would ensure that the funds are only drawn down once the project commences and that there is no subsequent impact on rates increase and/or prioritisation of other projects should this project not proceed. The cost of the Shire’s contribution to the works is estimated to be $300,000. The cost of the septic system solution after further investigation is likely to be in the vicinity of $150,000, as the sizable leach drains require placement above the water table and thus significant fill. It is also proposed to improve and seal the gravel entry road and carpark which is estimated to cost $150,000. Lake Leschenaultia caretaker accommodation A master plan for Lake Leschenaultia will be presented to Council later in 2016. The master plan will assist and guide Council when considering any future proposed capital developments at the Lake over a 20 year-plus period. The master plan will assist in managing growth and development of the site, whilst preserving its recreational opportunities and its environment and heritage values. Caretaker accommodation has been listed in previous CBPs as the highest priority for capital development at the Lake to assist in managing the current camp grounds and facilities. Pending consideration of the master plan, the actual location and scale of the accommodation can be determined. As such it is proposed to draw the budget from the Civic Facilities Reserve, rather than from municipal funding. This would ensure that the funds are only drawn down once the project commences and there is no subsequent impact on rates increase and/or prioritisation of other projects. Shire of Mundaring Corporate Business Plan 19 Items not funded in current CBP Through extensive examination of priorities, funding and other relevant factors, the items listed below are not included in this CBP, therefore no funding or resources are allocated. Additionally, it should be noted that at a Special Council meeting 28 June 2016, Council decided to delete the organisation functions and structure review from current CBP and will consider its inclusion in the 2017/18 CBP subject to the outcome of a report to Council (SC3.06.16).

Measures How will we know if we are succeeding? The Shire is committed to monitoring progress towards achieving the community’s vision. As part of each two year review of the SCP, the Shire will report to the community, providing an update on its progress in achieving the objectives articulated in Mundaring 2026. A biennial community survey will be a key input to this report. The Shire is also committed to measuring the quality of its performance in the areas of financial and asset management and will report against legislated measures and the following key measures on an annual basis via the Annual Report. This section outlines Shire of Mundaring’s approach to measurement of progress and details the key indicators that Council will track. These indicators will be supported by more detailed organisational effectiveness and efficiency indicators, which will be developed in year one of the CBP. This will assist in ensuring all service teams are operating in a systematic, effective and efficient manner to assist in driving organisational improvement. The indicators below have been selected to align with the four priority areas and goals as articulated in the SCP to reflect our progress as a community in achieving the community’s vision. Many of the outcomes of the SCP can be achieved through co-operative action by a range of stakeholders. As such, some indicators cover areas over which the Council may have little control or influence, but remain appropriate measures of progress towards the community’s vision. The level of Council influence is reflected alongside the indicators and is colour coded as per the table below. Key: Local Government level of control/ influence: High Policy areas that are in direct control of local government Medium Issues that local government does not control but can influence Low Areas that local government neither controls nor is likely to influence, but are of concern to the community and impact on community well-being Shire of Mundaring Corporate Business Plan 22 Key Indicators Priority Area: Governance Goals Level of Control A fiscally responsible Shire that prioritises spending appropriately.

It takes account of the internal and external factors impacting the workforce as well as the workforce implications of the strategic priorities identified by Council. This includes having in place a fit for purpose structure and effective business processes; as well as ensuring we have a flexible, proficient and adaptable workforce focussing on providing value for money services that meet the needs and aspirations of the community. Key Workforce Trends • We have an ageing workforce. • Competition in the labour market is continuing. • There are specific pressures in some skill areas. • We are facing new legislative requirements with workforce implications. • There is continuing focus on sustainability, efficiency and effectiveness in local government driving the need for a flexible, skilled and committed workforce. • Technology is changing the world of work. • There is continuing attention on workplace programs to promote healthier lifestyles. Workforce gaps, issues and risks • Changes in the workforce will be required to deliver Council priorities while maintaining existing services. • Strategies will be required to ensure continued workforce supply for identified critical positions or key groups. • Workforce diversity gaps and challenges will need to be addressed. • Strategies will be required to ensure continued supply of critical skills and capabilities. Workforce Changes The approved number of Full Time Equivalent Employees (FTE’s) for 2015/16 was 207.99.

Shire of Mundaring Corporate Business Plan 28 Summary of Asset Management Plans The Asset Management Plans define current levels of service and the processes used to manage each major asset class, being Transport (roads, bridges, carparks and bus shelters), Drainage, Footpaths, Buildings, Reserves (parks, ovals, aquatic, waste, cemeteries). Asset Management Plans include: • defined levels of service for each asset category or particular actions required to provide defined level of service in the most cost-effective manner • demand forecasting • risk management strategies • capital expenditure projections for assets as a result of growth, renewal, upgrade and disposal of assets • an asset management improvement program. The Asset Management Plans are developed to meet the requirements of the Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework requirements and to align the infrastructure required so that services needed by the community are provided in a financially sustainable manner, with funds included in the LTFP. The key asset management strategies in the table below assist in addressing these requirements. The Asset Management Plans address service delivery requirements, financial sustainability indicators and the community’s vision for the future as outlined in the Strategic Community Plan 2016 -26. While always looking to “do better with less” in an environment of reducing grant funding and increasing community demands, the Shire has planned to maintain current levels of service for the next 10 years based on the community’s desire to maintain current services, except where identified in the Asset Management Plans high level summaries table.

This will result in four new plant and a trailer purchase in 2016/17 from the Plant Reserve. A review of the second grader used for maintenance of gravel roads and gravel shoulders has indicated that based on projected usage it would be more efficient to hire a grader as required. A grader machine will therefore be disposed of in 2016/17.
