REPORT
This report provides Council with a Corporate Plan for adoption following consultation on the draft
Plan adopted by Council in December 2016.

Corporate Plan
As Council would recall, one of our key projects in the 2016/17 financial year was to develop a new
Corporate Plan. A previous report to Council in December 2016 outlined the process to develop a
draft Corporate Plan for the purposes of consultation.

The corporate hierarchy for local government’s corporate planning framework is set out below:



       Corporate
                              • What do we want to achieve in the long term?
         Plan


       Operation
                              • How do we work towards achieving our long term goals?
        al Plan


                              • How do we pay for this?
                  Budget
