Regional Council has released its latest annual report after voting to do so at a special meeting on Thursday morning.<\/p>\n<p>By law, all Queensland Councils are obliged to produce an Annual Report shortly after the end of each financial year.<\/p>\n<p>The report is then vetted by the Department of Local Government to ensure it complies with State-wide guidelines, and approval to release it is usually given in late October or early November.<\/p>\n<p>The report covers the Council&#8217;s major achievements in 2016-17 and how well &#8211; or otherwise &#8211; it is meeting performance targets and long-term goals.<\/p>\n<p>It also provides financial data that outline where the Council&#8217;s money came from and how it was spent.<\/p>\n<p><b>During 2016-2017, the Council says its main achievements were:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The final sealing of the South Burnett Rail Trail between Kingaroy and Murgon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The development of a new region-wide Planning Scheme<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The opening of the new Kingaroy Waste Water Treatment Plant<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Using Class A recycled water from the new plant to provide irrigation for Kingaroy&#8217;s sporting clubs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>A renewed focus on road repairs and maintenance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Attracting $22.7 million in Federal and State Government grants<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Improving the Council\u2019s financial position by finding further cost efficiencies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At the end of June 2017, the Council\u2019s total asset base was estimated to be $998 million and total liabilities $66 million, leaving a total equity of $932 million.<\/p>\n<p>Hard copies of the Annual Report are available for viewing at Council\u2019s Customer Service Centres and local libraries, and can be purchased for a fee.<\/p>\n<p>An electronic copy of the 2016-17 Annual Report is also available on the <a
