This financial strategy clearly
outlines the financial vision and
priorities for the next 10 years.
It
aims to ensure we are achieving an
appropriate balance between the
needs of our community, responsible
management of our assets, and
financial sustainability over the
long term. It provides guidance for
Council’s financial decisions and
a means to monitor the financial
performance of Council.
The budget for this Long-term Plan has
been developed to give effect to the
priorities as agreed by Council. Council
has also indicated a commitment to
maintaining current level of services,
meeting legislative requirements, looking
after our assets, and provisioning for the
expected growth of the district.
The financial strategy is a key part of, and sits within, our Long-term Plan.
