Leichhardt 2020+ Strategic Plan

Leichhardt 2020+ Strategic Plan Adopted May 2007

Leichhardt 2020+ Strategic Plan - Final Version Sept 2007 - 1,016 KB

Leichhardt Council’s has adopted the Leichhardt 2020+ Strategic Plan and it is now available for the public to access. Click on above link to view. Supporting documents can be found below.

Over 1200 residents, businesses, visitors, Councillors and staff have helped to develop this new strategic plan, identifying current and emerging long term issues and priorities for our Leichhardt LGA and the wider community. Almost 200 community members and staff participated in one of the 20 meetings held to review the Strategic Plan or provided individual comments.

This new Strategic Plan is strongly supported by the Council staff and the community. This plan will be the platform to prepare Council and the community for the future.

The plan focuses on building a sustainable and liveable community:

þ    3 key values provide a broad vision of what we want and guide how we work together

þ    6 key service areas – the future directions - establish a framework and direction to plan and deliver integrated social, environmental and economic outcomes for the community – the triple bottom line (TBL) for a sustainable community.

þ    Strategic actions provide a way forward to achieve strategic outcomes.

þ    Measures of Success will help to assess how successful the strategic priorities and actions are in implementing the plan and delivering community outcomes.

    

The Next Step

Leichhardt 2020+ Strategic Plan will inform and subsequently enable us to meaningfully review and modify:

þ    Leichhardt LEP/DCP 2000, the Social and Cultural Plan and other strategic service plans (eg a long term financial plan, asset management plans etc);

þ    The management plan to ensure it reflects the strategic plan targets and actions;

þ    Annual budgets to implement the various strategic priorities;

þ    The way the organisation works so that it can efficiently and effectively achieve identified strategic outcomes;  and

þ    Council committee and working group structures to properly address strategic and management plan objectives.

 Council has also professionally designed and bound Leichhardt 2020+ into a booklet which is available on request or can simply be downloaded from the above link titled "Leichhardt 2020+ Strategic Plan - Final Version Sept 2007".
