                         Corporate Plan
                         The Corporate Plan presents Noosa’s Vision and purpose. It frames Council’s
                         purpose in terms of several business objectives, as follows:
                             1. Provide excellence in customer service;
                             2. Engage with our community using best practice;
                             3. Provide quality local government services to the Noosa community;
                             4. Provide good governance and act ethically;
                             5. Be transparent in all our dealings;
                             6. Look after community and natural assets;
                             7. Manage community funds wisely;
                             8. Beas one with our community.
                         This Strategic Asset Management Plan and the Roadmap initiatives presented
                         herein, have been developed and prioritised to support achievement of the business
                         objectives defined in the Corporate Plan.
                         The Corporate Plan also documents the strategies that will be put in-place to
                         advance Council’s vision and business objectives over a five-year time horizon.
                         Many of the objectives and strategies in the current Corporate Plan are already
                         linked to asset management outcomes, but it is anticipated that these links will be
                         strengthened in the future as the Asset Management Framework matures.
                         Currently, the Corporate Plan sets out 44 strategies, under the following five key
                         themes:
                              1. The Noosa environment
                              2. The Noosa community
                              3. The Noosa economy
                              4.  Long-term planning for Noosa Shire
                              5.  Excellence as a Council
                         Council Adopted Strategies and Branch Plans
                         These are the planning documents that capture the details of the objectives,
                         approach, resource requirements and expected outcomes of the strategies defined
                         in the Corporate Plan.
                         The Corporate Plan specifically references the development of Asset Management
                         Plans as a key focus area for Council. In addition, it includes Strategies and Plans
                         that may have an influence on future asset planning, as follows:
                         °    The Zero Emissions Strategy
                         °    The Environment Strategy and supporting Plans
                         °    The Noosa Social Strategy and supporting Plans
                         °    The Town Planning Scheme and supporting Plans

                                                                                                    Page 16 of 70
