Shire: Budget $790,000 on Climate Change


The Shire of Yarra Ranges has an allocated budget of $790,000 per annum to implement Council’s Climate Change Commitment. A range of options have been examined to achieve Council’s Climate Change Objectives as set out in the attachment. This report proposes to direct a large part of the above funding towards capital improvement projects to reduce the Shire’s reliance on energy consumption. The annual savings will be returned to the program to fund further energy reduction measures.

How do you feel about this expense in light of the expenses caused by Black Saturday? I am undecided at the moment.
