The recent Financial Sustainability Review found that the City of Greater Geelong is a financially sustainable organisation, however, like many other councils, it faces challenges with its capacity to deliver the capital works programs and services in the long term future. Council’s Strategic Resource Plan is updated annually as part of the annual City Plan update. It contains the principles that underpin the financial management of Council operations as well as guiding the long term financial plan. Importantly, Council’s financial performance is sound and being managed responsibly and the community’s assets are well managed. Our financial accounts were audited and have been issued an unqualified audit opinion by the Victorian Auditor-General. Refer to pages173-221 for the full Annual Financial Report.
