OUR PLANNING FRAMEWORK The Integrated Planning and Reporting (IP&R) framework guides the way local government plans, documents and reports its future strategies. The IP&R Framework begins with the community’s aspirations for a period of at least 10 years, which is considered by each newly elected council and underpinned by a suite of integrated plans that set out a vision and objectives and hones down to specific actions to achieve those aspirations. It involves a reporting structure to communicate progress to the Council and community and a structured review timeline to ensure that the goals and actions are still relevant.
Community Engagement Strategy The Community Engagement Strategy is based on social justice principles and details how we engage with our community to prepare the Community Strategic Plan.
Community Strategic Plan – THE CLARENCE 2032 The Community Strategic Plan is the overarching document for all plans and policies of the Council. It identifies the community’s aspirations and priorities for the future of the local government area(LGA) . It creates the vision we are working toward.
Delivery Program The Delivery Program is the key directional document for the term of the elected council. It is developed by a newly elected council and adopted before the end of June in the year following the election. It is presented as a statement of commitment to the community by outlining the focus the council intends to contribute toward achieving the long-term aspirational goals of the community as identified in the Community Strategic Plan. It should be noted that successive elected councils contribute towards achieving the aspirations of the Community Strategic Plan.
