4. STRATEGIC CONTEXT The delivery of services to the community is guided by the Golden Plains Community Vision 2040, Council Plan, strategies and policies. These also drive Council’s approach to asset management.
4.1
Strategic Planning Principles
The Local Government Act 2020 drives an integrated approach to planning and reporting to support strategic decision-making through:
Strategic planning provides Council with a clear direction, informs its resource planning, and helps to ensure Council delivers on its commitments.
• Recognising that planning is holistic and should be driven by the community.
Figure 4 shows how the Asset Plan 2022-2032 fits with Council’s other strategic planning documents.
• Providing a comprehensive view of Council’s available resources and commitments. • Enabling alignment of Council’s objectives and capabilities. • Supporting an understanding of medium- to longterm implications of Council’s decisions on resource allocation and performance. • Being outcome-focused.
