Under Victorian law, almost all Council decisions have to be consistent with and guided by a Council Plan. The projects Council chooses to fund and the way different areas of our work are prioritised are guided by our Council Plan, which will in turn align with the values and principles set out in the Community Vision. In short, these are the single most important strategic documents for Council – they influence every other piece of work we do.
The plan outlines five areas of focus (Themes) and supporting strategies under which Council will deliver a range of actions to help achieve the Community Vision. Under the heading ‘Monitoring Success’ strategic indicators have been included for each Theme.
Theme 1: Living in the Borough Theme 2: Building the Borough
Theme 3: Work, play and stay in the Borough
Theme 4: Running the Borough
Theme 5: Caring for the Borough
