The Delivery program is a four-year plan that outlines Councils objectives and key projects for the next four years.
The Delivery Program is the key ‘go-to’ document for the councillors. It identifies all of the key activities the council has committed to undertaking over its four-year term.
All council plans, projects, activities, and funding allocations must be directly linked to the Delivery Program.

The interrelated documents ensure the effective allocation of time, money, assets, and people.
The Resourcing Strategy is a critical link when translating strategic objectives into actions.
The Community Strategic Plan provides a vehicle for each community to express its long-term aspirations. However, these aspirations will not be achieved without sufficient resources – time, money, assets and people – to implement them.
The Resourcing Strategy consists of a set of asset, workforce and financial planning documents to support the Council in delivering its services and outcomes.
These three documents are:
- Asset Management Strategy
- Long-Term Financial Plan
- Workforce Management Strategy
As its name suggests, each of the elements of the Resourcing Strategy also play a role in resourcing the achievement of the Delivery Program and Operational Plans, as well as any other strategic plans the council has developed to support the achievement of the Community Strategic Plan.
