HAVE YOUR SAY | 2022-2027 CORPORATE PLAN
We're developing our new Corporate Plan – and we want to hear from you!
In the next five years, what can make the biggest difference in Cook Shire and how can Council best serve the community?
These are the questions we’ve been asking ourselves in developing our draft Corporate Plan 2022-2027.
Under legislation, we must adopt a Corporate Plan every five years and we use this as an opportunity to ensure we are on track as an organisation in how we are serving our community. That’s why we want to hear from you.
What does a Corporate Plan do?
As with the current Corporate Plan 2017-2022, the new Corporate Plan will:
- guide how Council prioritises and delivers services, programs and facilities to our community over the next five years
- influence Council’s annual budget and Operational Plan.
What’s changing?
In this plan, we’re focusing on the outcomes that will make the biggest transformation for Cook Shire Council in the medium term – from the environment, through to the economy, our Community and our organisation.
Does the new Plan reflect the community’s vision for Cook Shire Council?
This is our first Corporate Plan under the Cook Shire Council 2031 Community Plan, and again reflects the six outcome areas our community identified as being most important:
- Places for People
- Wellbeing and Empowerment
- Accessibility and Connectivity
- Economic Development
- Environmental Responsibility
- Organisational Capability
Where are we at in the process?
Council has endorsed the draft Corporate Plan 2022-2027 for community consultation. The draft was created through extensive engagement with Council staff and a range of community groups.
Now it’s your turn to have your say on the document that will guide Council’s decision-making for the next five years.
Feedback closes on 8 April 2022, with Council expected to consider the final draft for adoption at the Ordinary Council Meeting on 26 April 2022.
Below is a snapshot of our draft Corporate Plan 2022-2027 that outlines the themes and the outcomes we’re proposing in the draft Corporate Plan 2022-2027. For more details on how Council plans to measure our progress and achieve these outcomes, please view the Draft Corporate Plan 2022-2027.
