IINNTTRROODDUUCCTTIIOONN I present to you the review of the second quarter of the 2004/05 financial year. This review reflects the financial and operational performance of the organisation for this period and reports on the achievement of the objectives contained within the 2004-2008 Corporate Plan. OOPPEERRAATTIIOONNAALL PPEERRFFOORRMMAANNCCEE The 2004/05 Enterprise Agreement for Wollongong City Council employees was ratified and implemented by the Industrial Relations Commission in late October 2004. Management have forwarded a draft copy of the 2005-08 Enterprise Agreement to unions for comment and commencement of negotiations.

Residents and businesses involved in small and larger scale development in the City now have a more streamlined process regarding the advertising of their proposal after Council endorsed changes to the Notification Policy. The amended Notification Policy defines the type of notification required for particular developments. The period and process of notification are now more applicable to the scale, type and location of the proposal.

New exercise equipment installed at Beaton Park Leisure Centre has enabled the redesign of the former circuit area. The Parks Express Circuit is now located in the former cardio area. The gymnasium layout has also been redesigned and offers a more open and spacious floor plan. In addition the Lakeside Leisure Centre equipment has been installed in both the cardio and circuit areas resulting in increased visitation to the Centre. The 2004 Viva la Gong festival showcased Wollongong at its most creative and innovative. Over 287 artists were employed to create exhibitions, performances and events in response to the theme Metamorphosis looking at the development and transformation of our city. Over 1,600 members of our community and 377 local businesses contributed their time and creativity to produce 39 events in 30 of Wollongongs cultural venues. An estimated 31,000 people attended events during the 10 day festival. During this quarter Councils Rise and Shine Program resulted in a record 116 different community groups participating in the annual 13 week spring clean-up. Over 50 tonnes of rubbish were collected from creeks, bushland, dune areas and other public locations. The annual Rise and Shine Program presentation night was held in December with more than 150 certificates being given to individuals, community groups and schools for their efforts throughout the year.

Councils commitment to water education continued during this quarter. In October the focus was on water conservation strategies to coincide with Water Week which was held between 18 and 24 October. Five community workshops addressing water conservation issues were conducted. Community FACT sheets were produced for water conservation, grey water and rainwater tanks.

A pilot of the community participation program Our Waterways was conducted during October. The program was extended into November and December with five (5) additional workshops addressing water conservation and pollution issues. The website for the Our Waterways program was developed during November and December and is ready for launch in January 2005.

PAGE II GENERAL MANAGERS REPORT

The major consultation period of the Sustainability Begins at Home Program was completed in December, culminating in a Celebration Dinner to thank program sponsors, business partners, workshop presenters and members of the community. A presentation was given providing information on program activities and preliminary results. Approximately 30 home audits (energy, water and waste) were conducted as part of the Sustainability Begins at Home Program throughout the quarter. Each individual home received a report identifying the water and energy rating for the home as well as recommendations to assist improvement of the energy star rating as appropriate. The Environment & Health Division completed a draft Green Procurement and Purchasing Policy for Council to be incorporated into our purchasing policy. Comments were received following internal review and these are being incorporated into the policy for finalisation.

As a part of Councils Surf Sense education program, a Surf Safety Workshop was conducted by Councils Lifeguard Service at the Wollongong University. The workshop was held specifically for international students who are unfamiliar with surf safety issues. Multi-lingual information brochures were also distributed.

During December Council arranged two series of street meetings with residents in Coalcliff, Bulli, Woonona, Mt Ousley and Cordeaux Heights which provided an avenue for residents to discuss their bushfire concerns in these areas and informed them of the design of the bushfire asset protection zones and the nature of the works required at these sites to reduce the bushfire risk. This also involved a presentation by the Rural Fire Service with information on how to prepare your property, reduce bushfire risks around your house and protect yourself in a bushfire emergency.

Councils waste management services were promoted during National Recycling Week. Waste tips on a variety of issues were placed regularly in the Advertiser, as well as descriptions of the Annual Household Cleanup areas. The work of our Waste Management group, particularly the Green Team and Glengarry Cottage, was recognised through a win at the Illawarra Business Chamber Awards in the Access Category. Wollongong Music Week was held between 24 November and 1 December 2004. A number of events were held throughout Wollongong promoting and celebrating the Wollongong original music scene. Wollongong Youth Services hosted 2 all age events and music industry workshops. Wollongong Youth Services Entertainment Committee received an award from Music Oz for most Active Local Music Industry Young Person or Group.

The Kids Garden Groove event to celebrate Childrens Week was held on 14 November 2004. The number of people in attendance was up by approximately 40% with 1,500 people passing through the gates over the 4 hour period. This years theme was healthy bodies and a healthy environment. Several Divisions of Council were involved in the days events. The event was a huge success with the various divisions of council having the opportunity to showcase their programs to the community. The City of Wollongong welcomed in the 2005 New Year with the New Years fEVEr in the Gong event. This community event was staged in Wollongongs Lang Park and culminated in a spectacular fireworks display. The project was managed by Council, with sponsorship funding from a number of businesses including WIN Television, IMB, City Beach Function Centre and BlueScope Steel.

REPORT OF CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER OOVVEERRVVIIEEWW YEAR TO DATE The table provides my view of our overall financial performance against key indicators, for the year to date period to 31 December 2004. The table indicates the actual position at both Q1 and Q2 and an overall view of each financial indicator for the half-year period. YEAR TO DATE Actual Actual Budget Budget

Regulatory Compliance The overall position at 31 December 2004 is within expectations across the broad range of indicators and on a budget outcome basis, acceptable. The Budget Review Statement deals with the full year forecast at 30 June 2005. FULL YEAR The full year 2004-05 forecast reflects a significant level of projects carried over from the prior year, and resulting in a significant forecast deficit. A similar level of carry over project expenditures should be anticipated for the current year. On this basis, I am confident that the original budget surplus remains viable. Internal control systems, monitored through the Internal Audit Program, are operating satisfactorily and there are no known breaches of regulatory compliance, and none anticipated.

BBUUDDGGEETT RREEVVIIEEWW SSTTAATTEEMMEENNTT RREEVVIISSIIOONN OOFF FFUULLLL YYEEAARR EESSTTIIMMAATTEESS The tables in this report represent a reconciliation of movements from the original budget to the previously adopted budget [Q1] and the proposed or revised budget [Q2]. They are necessarily at the higher level of detail and are accrual based accounts and presented on a full year basis.

With regard to the original estimate of income and expenditure, the financial statements and schedules contained within the Quarterly Corporate Review reflect overall a satisfactory outcome to budget in light of the original budget estimate and adopted principle of fiscal balance and given the necessary accounting adjustments required during the quarter.

Available funds movement for the year to 30 June 2005 is forecast at $4.470M deficit, compared to an original budgeted surplus of $0.187M, reflecting an adverse movement for the year. This is a result of the reintroduction of prior year projects, additional items voted during the quarter offset by savings identified during the quarter. It is reasonable to expect, based on recent history, that a higher level of future carry forward projects will be identified during Q3 and Q4, improving the reported result.

There is an improvement in the forecast operating position [Statement of Financial Performance] from the Adopted Budget to the Revised Budget position of $0.785M, attributable to items contained in the reconciliation in table 3.

The deterioration in the full year operating position as reported should be recovered in Q3 and Q4 and in this regard fiscal restraint and careful budgetary management will be required.

Reconciliation of Projected Funds Position Original Budget 187 Projects in progress at 30 June 2004, reintroduced into 2004-05 (5,463) Council resolutions during Q1 (173) Adopted Budget Prior to Q1 Review (5,449) Budget Adjustments identified during Q1 Review 194 Projected Funds Deficit for 2004-05 as at Q1 Review (5,255) Projects identified for Carryover during Q2 Review 917 Budget Adjustments identified during Q2 Review (132) Projected Funds Deficit for 2004-05 as at Q2 Review (4,470) The projected funds deficit for the year ended is 30 June 2005 after the December QCR is $4.470M indicating an improvement of $0.785M against the Q1 Adopted Budget. This improvement is largely due to a number of projects with a net value of $0.917M that have been deferred from the 2004-05 Budget to future periods. A detailed list of these projects is provided in Schedule 4 in Part B of this document.

PAGE VIII RESPONSIBLE ACCOUNTING OFFICERS REPORT

The following is a list of the major factors that have contributed to the projected deterioration of $0.132M excluding carry-overs. A detailed list of variations is contained in the Schedule 3 in Part B.

3 BUDGET VARIATIONS $000 FULL YEAR FORECAST 2004-05 Q2

VAR

RATE INCOME 505 The projected increase is a result of a number of properties that were classified as non rateable at 1 July 2004 that have become rateable after the initial rate levy was made. In addition there has been back rating of properties for previous years.

BANK CHARGES 100 There has been a reduction in merchant service fees following changes in regulations by the Reserve Bank. The reduction in charges was also assisted by the implementation of the COSMOS facility for the payment of Council rates by phone, direct debit and internet.

INSURANCE 600

The Adopted Budget included $400K contribution for insurance claims that occurred whilst Council was a member of the Premsure self insurance pool. It is not anticipated that this payment will be required for 2004-05. In addition, trends on below excess payments for public liability claims indicate that the current provision of $700K will not be required fully and as such a reduction of $200K has been made in expenditure projections in this area.

PEDESTRIAN SAFETY STRATEGY PROJECT 100 An amount of $200K grant income for the above project was included in the Adopted Budget along with a matching Council contribution of $200K. Recent advice is that only $100K of grant funds will be available in the current year, hence there has been a corresponding reduction in Councils contribution.

LEGAL EXPENSES (250) Current trends indicate that the existing budget of $700K will not be sufficient. An interim increase has been made and expenditure trends will be further reviewed during the March QCR.

MOTOR VEHICLE PURCHASES & DISPOSALS (398) Additional vehicles and pricing has resulted in an increased level of net expenditure. DEVELOPMENT ASSESSMENT & COMPLIANCE CONSULTANTS (342) Increased level of consultant usage as a result development assessment workloads and complexity of issues.

EMPLOYEE COSTS (384) Revised projections indicate an increase in employee costs of $691K. The increase includes the employment of additional staff in Community Services ($105K), Leisure Centres ($30K) and for the Environmental Fund projects ($172K). These increases do not have an impact on the overall result as they have been offset by additional grant funds received, additional fees and savings in Material & Contracts budgets respectively. Further amounts are attributable to the need to backfill staff under the injury management program or extended sick leave $142K, annual review of salary packages for senior staff $90K, Industrial Relation Court ruling for compensation in place of motor vehicles allocation $36K, additional staff requirements in Development Assessment & Planning area due to back filling for extended leave and workloads $225K. This has been offset by a reduction in employee costs of $93K resulting from the dissolution of the Ombudsmans Office and other various minor changes of $16K.

BALANCING ITEMS (63) TOTAL MOVEMENT IN FUNDING RESULT (132) In addition to the above changes that have been incorporated in the revised projections, a number of issues were considered but no adjustment has been made at this point in time and will be monitored closely through Q3: Superannuation Council has not been required to make contributions on behalf of employees who are members the Retirement and Defined Benefits Scheme superannuation fund for a number of years due to the level of surplus held in that fund. Recent advice indicates that the existing holiday period is under review. At this stage there has not been definitive advice as to commencement date or the level of the charge. Should Council be required to resume the full contribution, the annual cost would approximate $2.8M.

PAGE IX RESPONSIBLE ACCOUNTING OFFICERS REPORT

An amount of $1M was set aside in restricted cash at 30 June 2004 out of savings achieved during that year in anticipation of the reintroduction of this expenditure. This cost has not been included in any of Councils financial forecasts and could have a significant impact in future. Property Damage Council provides an annual budget for rectification of damage to Council property that is below the applicable insurance excess. The budget for 2004-05 is $1.0M and as at the end of December was 66% spent. At this stage no adjustment has been made. Development Assessment Income Current income trends indicate a potential adverse variance against budget. Income achieved for the half year ending December 2004 is $1.6M or 47% of the annual budget. For the corresponding period for 2003, Council had achieved 55% of the full year income. This is an area that is subject to fluctuation both in terms of volume and value of developments caused by external factors.
