Further explanation referring to Local Government Act 2009 s262(3)
Under the Local Government Act 2009, Section 262, Council is permitted to charge fees for various services and facilities, including those beyond just its direct services. This provision allows councils to establish cost recovery fees to cover expenses associated with providing certain services or facilities, ensuring that the costs incurred by Council are appropriately managed and accounted for.
By doing so, Council can maintain financial sustainability while continuing to provide essential services to the community. This approach aligns with Council's responsibility to manage public funds effectively and ensure that costs are shared fairly among users of the services.
