Persson said that other services such as libraries, pool hours and sporting field maintenance would be cut back if the proposed rate rise did not get IPART approval.
Council wants a rate rise of 15 percent and its second choice is a 10 percent increase. Meanwhile, the work of reducing the number of staff at Council continues and Persson said Council was meeting its redundancy target.
Four directors and their directorates � Governance; Innovation and Futures; People and Culture; and Information Management and Technology - have been cut.
The number of senior staff has reduced from nine to five and the business areas that fell under these directorates have been moved elsewhere within the organisation. The Human Resources department has been incorporated into Corporate Services and the Internal Ombudsman is no longer on the executive leadership team. Also, the next line of managers has been cut from 39 to These positions will go as staff leave the organisation over the coming months.

In surveying the community recently about a proposed rate rise, many suggested alternatives be considered. In response to feedback from the community, other revenue options are being explored. Last week at the Ordinary Council meeting I requested that Council explore the viability of introducing a visitor-based beach parking system to contribute to defraying of the costs of providing beach and tourist related reservices.
The Central Coast economy relies heavily on visitors. Over 5 million people visit our region annually, with a large portion attracted to our beaches and beachside centres. The Council provides many services to this group and currently they make no direct contribution to cover these costs.
Ratepayers carry this burden and in the current climate I feel it is important to explore options to collect parking fees from visitors. Any scheme that may be introduced should have a clear exemption for ratepayers. We see a lot of our popular beaches with a user pay system that protects ratepayers. We are planning the future water needs for our region and we want you to be part of the conversation.
There are many things we need to consider including climate variability and change, population growth and advances in technology, as well as more acute stresses such as drought to ensure there will be enough water for the Coast in the future.
This plan will help our collaborative work with Hunter Water and the Department of Planning Industry and Environment to make sure both the Central Coast and Lower Hunter regions have water strategies that can work side by side. The drought response desalination plant The community is invited to provide feedback on proposed modifications to the existing planning approval for the intake structure for a possible drought response desalination plant.
This is our insurance policy in case of unprecedented drought conditions. The existing planning approval for the intake structure will be modified from being located under the sand dunes at Budgewoi Beach, to a direct ocean intake structure off the coast between Jenny Dixon Beach, Noraville and Pelican Point Beach, Magenta.
