OUR PERFORMANCE
Meeting legislative requirements The Integrated Planning and Reporting (IP&R) framework brings various plans together to leverage our efforts by planning holistically for the future. The IP&R legislation recognises that councils act as the community’s advocate to capture a vision for the community’s future and inspire others to participate in that vision. Councils are required to make short, medium and long-term plans to meet the community’s needs by developing an integrated set of strategic plans: •
Community Strategic Plan (10+ years)
•
Delivery Program (four years)
•
Operational Plan (one year)
COMMUNITY STRATEGIC PLAN 10 + YEARS
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
DELIVERY PROGRAM 4 YEARS
OPERATIONAL PLAN 1 YEAR
RESOURCING STRATEGY Contains the Workforce Management Plan, Digital Resource Management Plan, Asset Management Plan and Long Term Financial Plan
PERPETUAL MONITORING AND REVIEW
ANNUAL REPORT We are required to have a 10-year Resourcing Strategy consisting of a Long-term Financial Plan, Asset Management Plan and Workforce Management Plan. In 2020/21 we included a Digital Resource Management Plan in the Resourcing Strategy for the first time. The plans outline how we will consult with the community and align with our long-term objectives. Each council, following its election, must review the plans and make sure they can be used effectively to meet present and future needs and be updated annually. We adopted our 2020/21 IP&R documents in June 2020.
