Annual Business Plan 2025/26

Background

Our Annual Business Plan sets out programs and services to meet our community's current and future needs, and is guided by:

  • Our Community Plan which sets the vision for our community and organisation; and
  • Our overall planning framework (Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP)) which sets strategic directions over the medium and long term and converts these into annual actions and outcomes.
Community Consultation

In April each year we invite our residents, ratepayers and businesses to take a look at our Draft Annual Business Plan and provide feedback on the suggested annual actions and outcomes. We now welcome your feedback on our Draft Annual Business Plan 2025/26 which includes all budget bids. A summary list of all budget bids is also available for your convenience.
