The proposed budget, which will be discussed by councillors on Wednesday, has millions of dollars in major projects slated for the next financial year.

Among the big ticket items is Proctor Park, which is slated to receive three additional fields thanks to a funding allocation of $2.2 million.

Director of Corporate Services and Finance, Aaron Jones, said that council plans to pay for the project using its own funds and grants, but not all of the money has been secured at this stage.

"That work will only proceed if the grant is secured," he said.

In addition to the fields, council has earmarked $200,000 to cover design and consultation for new required land that will inform the layout of Proctor Park.

The new football precinct on Hereford Street, Jack Arrow Park, is also set to receive a healthy boost from council in its 2019-20 budget.

A further $2.2 million has been allocated for the construction of two new fields, much of the money coming from a NSW Government grant received last year.

The fields will be constructed on vacant land between the Bathurst Bulldogs and St Patrick's Rugby League facilities, with the fields being dual purpose.

The Hereford Street complex also has $500,000 allocated to develop the car parking facilities.

Closer to the central business district, Bathurst Sportsground has been allocated $1.5 million to reconstruct the oval, and a further $305,000 to upgrade a work shed and amenities.

The draft budget also includes a series of smaller funding allocations to make improvements to other sporting facilities.

This includes the extension of Bathurst Skate Park ($551,000), turf cricket wicket restoration treatment ($150,000), refurbishment of the lap scoring tower at Mount Panorama ($100,000) and synthetic tennis court resurfacing at the John Matthews Sporting Complex ($61,380).

One of the more expensive items council hopes to carry out is stage two works on the Perthville Flood Mitigation project, seeing $2.55 million set aside to construct the levee.

The stage two works will build on what was achieved in 2018, with stage one involving a lot of work near the bridge.

In news that is sure to delight much of the community, council has also set aside $250,000 for undetermined works in Centennial Park.

A landscape design has been prepared, but will cost somewhere in the vicinity of $4.4 million to deliver.

For that reason, councillors have previously asked for some kind of work to be done in the interim period for the community, and this budget item will ideally achieve that.

"It will fund something that was in that particular program," Mr Jones said.

"The challenge that we've got at the moment is trying to find what we can do with the $250,000 which won't then be disrupted when we go to do the major works."

Overall, Mr Jones was pleased with council's financial situation, as it had achieved a surplus of $9376.

"The council objective is to maintain a balanced budget, so anything close to zero is a good outcome," he said.

"The fact that we're in a surplus, given the pressures that are posed on local government at the moment, is an awesome achievement for council.

"It's only a $10,000 surplus, but it is a surplus. There are a number of other councils that are struggling to deliver that outcome, so we're in a very happy place."
