What are Asset Management Plans?

Asset Management Plans (AMPs) are strategic documents for managing our infrastructure and other assets across the city to deliver an agreed standard of service. They define the actions we will take to develop, operate, maintain, upgrade and dispose of assets in the most cost-effective manner.

We consider lots of things when we develop these plans, including:

  • Existing asset location, value, condition, age and useful life.
  • Known new assets for inclusion
  • Current usage and future demand of assets
  • Maintenance costs
  • Review of maintenance and renewal requirements
  • Climate data
  • Asset materials and circular economy
  • Resident feedback.

When AMPs are approved, the financial values estimated in the AMPs are transferred to the City of Charles Sturt's Long-Term Financial Plan (LTFP) to forecast future costs and budgets. AMPs go on to inform the annual budgeting and planning, strategic plans, work programming, asset valuations and depreciation projections, and ongoing analysis, monitoring and evaluation.

We invite you to review our revised AMPs for 2024 - 2034 to ensure that our agreed service standards for our transport, public lighting, open space and recreation, and council buildings infrastructure will meet the needs and demands of the community, now and into the future. You also encouraged to take a few minutes to give your feedback on one or more of the revised plans, below, that may affect you. You will be asked a few questions about your usage and satisfaction related to certain assets, and then you can also make general comments on each of the draft plans.
