Financial Sustainability Strategy 2025-2029

The Financial Sustainability Strategy 2025–2029 outlines how we will manage its finances to continue delivering services, facilities and infrastructure for the community over the next four years. It supports the Community Vision and Banyule Plan by identifying practical actions to strengthen long-term financial sustainability while responding to challenges such as rate capping, rising costs, ageing infrastructure and increasing service demand.

The strategy is important because it provides a clear framework for maintaining our financial health, managing risk and ensuring funds are available for both current and future community needs.

It guides us through targets and actions focused on revenue growth, grants, investments, debt management, operational efficiency, service reviews and digital improvement, helping ensure high-quality services and sustainable community infrastructure for future generations.
