This Council Plan is still in draft and has not yet been officially approved. Following further feedback and changes, the final version of the Council Plan will be adopted and published here in December.
This Council Plan sets out the strategic priorities that the council wants to deliver over the next 5 years. This work is underpinned by a number of ‘principal strategies’, listed below, which set out greater detail on the delivery of these priorities.
We also have a number of ‘enabling strategies’, also listed below, which support the way in which the council will be able to deliver its priorities.
There is a golden thread running from the Council Plan, through the principal and enabling strategies, through service plans, which are updated annually and set out the operational requirements for delivery, and through to individual employee objectives. This ensures that all planning across the council is aligned with our vision and priorities.
