Strategies, Plans and Reports

Contained within this section are our strategic documents required under the NSW Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework (IP&R). Under this framework, all Councils are required to deliver a suite of strategic documents that supports a holistic approach to planning for the future. The framework consists of a long term Community Strategic Plan, a 4 year Delivery Program and annual Operational Plan and budget – all informed by a long term Resourcing Strategy. Integral to the framework is ongoing engagement, monitoring and review, and regular reporting on our progress towards achieving the goals and aspirations of the community
