The District Council of Yankalilla is responsible for Stormwater & Transport Assets across the District. It provides and maintains these assets on behalf of its ratepayers for the delivery of services to the community and visitors to our district.

Asset management practices impact directly on the core business of Council. Appropriate asset management is required to achieve Council’s objective in providing infrastructure that meet the levels of service expected by the community in a cost-effective manner.

The Council has recently developed its Draft Stormwater and Transport Asset Management Plans.

These Draft Plans provides information on:

• The extent and value of the assets under the care and control of Council;
• The current levels of service adopted for each of the asset types;
• The lifecycle costs to maintain renew (work required to return an existing asset to its original condition and useful life) and to provide new assets identified in Councils Strategic Plan;
• Improvements required further improving and refining asset management processes.

The Stormwater and Transport Asset Management Plans are documents which will provide guidance to Council in its service delivery and budget allocations over the next ten years.

As stewards of these assets, on behalf of our ratepayers, Council sought feedback on the Plans during June 2023. and will now finalise the documents and present them to Council for endorsement.
