Catchments Example

Suppose the district map shows the following five Localities - L1 through L5:

The specific physical place where a Project (or part of a Project) will occur. The Locality does not necessarily identify who will receive the services, or who will ultimately fund the project. See Catchment for further discussion.

These five localities are to be grouped into Catchments for each Sub-activity. For three sub-activities, Sub-activity A through Sub-activity C, catchments might look like this:

A Sub-activity is a specific maintenance or renewal category under which Programmes and Projects can be defined e.g stormwater.

A Sub-activity comprises a set of related Programmes which collectively deliver an overall change for the business.

Catchment is a term to describe the area of specific DC charges within a Sub-activity service area. For each Sub-activity there will be an assignment of a number of Localities to each charging catchments. This assignment will relate growth changes in the community to each Sub-activity and to each catchment within the Sub-activity. The catchment will represent an area within a Sub-activity service area where specific benefits apply.

For Sub-activity A has three catchments, Catchment CAa through Catchment CAc. All of the localities have been included in a catchment.

For Sub-activity B, there are also three catchments, but Locality L3 has not been included in any of the catchments. Locality L3 would not be charged for provision of infrastructure in Programme B.

For Sub-activity C, there are only two catchments. Two isolated areas Locality L1 and Locality L3 have been included in Catchment CCa, while the rest of the localities have been included in Catchment CCb.
