Measuring success Success against our actions in the Operational Plan will be measured in outputs (the things we did). For each community theme, we have identified measures of success that will tell us how we are tracking towards achieving our community goals. The sources for these measures include Council’s internal reporting as well as publications from various agencies and organisations such as the Australian Bureau of Statistics, Australian Institute of Health and Welfare and Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research. We may also, at times, survey our community to understand their perceptions and attitudes, satisfaction and agreement levels with services, facilities or programs.
Reporting and informing Council is responsible for providing regular reports to the community on the progress being made towards achieving the shared community vision. We will also regularly communicate on major priorities and projects through our media and social media channels.
