Strategic Documents Under the Integrated Planning and Reporting framework, all councils are required to deliver a suite of strategic documents supporting a holistic approach to planning for the future. Council’s supporting strategic documents are developed with input from the community, are endorsed by elected members and provide an important link between the Delivery Program and achievement of the outcomes in the Community Strategic Plan.
Our supporting strategic documents by Theme Strategic documents define Council’s role and policy position in relation to specific issues and recommend the best path forward. Set out on the next page is a Strategic Document Map showing Council’s strategic documents split across the four themes of Liveable, Sustainable, Productive, Collaborative. While the documents may drive outcomes across all four themes, organising them in this way creates a clear alignment with the adopted structure in Your vision | Your future 2032 at the highest level.
Our overarching strategy document is the Community Strategic Plan. The strategic documents are our lead strategies which identify key challenges and set out high level action plans to address them and help guide decision-making. They contain recommended actions which are then prioritised and implemented as funding becomes available. The Delivery Program and Operational Plan is the key pathway of implementation for these strategic documents. Pathways of implementation are also shown under Supporting Implementation Plans and Pathways. These strategic documents will take on a strong focus in this and future Delivery Programs and Operational Plans.
