The Annual Plan and Budget 2020–21 is the final in our four-year Council Plan for 2017–21. This is a COVID-19 Recovery Budget, designed to support jobs and businesses, protect rate-payers and rebuild our local economy.
The Annual Plan and Budget outlines $632 million worth of programs and initiatives in the 2020–21 financial year. This includes a freeze on rates for residents and businesses, a $50 million COVID-19 Recovery Package, a major focus on capital works projects, transport and on our climate emergency response. These are designed to help support Melbourne’s community and respond to the unprecedented economic and social challenges we are facing due to COVID-19.
