Council Plan and Budget

Frankston City Council’s annual budget for 2024–2025 has been adopted following community consultation and public submissions.

Each year, our Budget provides services for people at all stages of life, maintaining our infrastructure, community facilities and parks, operating our libraries, events, festivals and art centre as well as rubbish and recycling collections.

As Council navigates economic challenges felt across all levels of government and the broader community, the budget ensures the sustainability of the services we provide and supports the ongoing growth and development of our municipality.

Finance Plan

The Finance Plan defines the broad financial boundaries for Council over the next ten years.

The plan is made up of three main sections:

  • The Financial Policies that set out the financial targets that ensure Council remains financially sustainable
  • The Financial Strategy that identifies the approach Council intends to take to achieve the financial policies
  • The Financial Statements that apply the financial strategies to a ten year financial model to ensure that Council meets its Financial Policy targets.

The Local Government Act 2020 (The Act) requires Councils to prepare a ten year Financial Plan in the year following a general election through the introduction of governance and supporting principles which include an integrated approach to planning, monitoring and performance reporting.
