Integrated planning and reporting

Each year, Council reports on its implementation of the delivery program and operational plan in its Annual Report.

The purpose of the plan is to identify the community’s main priorities and aspirations for the future and to identify strategies for achieving these goals.

The Delivery Program is a statement of how Council aims to achieve the outcomes developed by the community in the Community Strategic Plan.

The End-of-Term report is presented at the final meeting prior to the local government elections.

The State of Environment report sits alongside the End-of-Term report. It reports on the environmental measures identified in the Community Strategic Plan and identifies major environmental impacts and trends in the local area.

The Operational Plan is a one year plan developed to implement the activities that will achieve the strategic directions set out in the Delivery Program and the Community Strategic Plan.

The resourcing strategy forms part two of the delivery program.
