An Introduction to Integrated Planning and Reporting

Under the Local Government Act 1993, Council is required to change its current Strategic Planning process by June 2012. Currently, Council has a three tiered framework which includes our Strategic Directions, Management Plans and Business Plans. Under the new Integrated Planning and Reporting Guidelines, Council will develop a Community Strategic Plan in consultation with Council's partners and the community. The Community Strategic Plan will identify the main priorities and aspirations for the future of the Wollongong Local Government Area over the next 10 years.

The Draw Write Snap Share promotion commences the planning journey for the Community Strategic Plan as we frame future conversations about our aspirations and visions for the future of our City and our community. As well as generating interest and awareness, the promotion will provide a source of images and words to be used in future consultations.

Over the coming months further information on the Community Strategic Plan will be provided, with the questions to be asked:

Where are we now?
Where do we want to be in 10 years time?
How will we get there?
How will we know when we have arrived?

The Community Engagement Strategy outlines how Council is going to engage individuals, community groups, Government agencies and non-Government organisations in the formation of the Wollongong Community Strategic Plan.

Community Engagement Strategy for the Community Strategic Plan
