What is "Our Resourcing Plan"?

Our Resourcing Plan 2023-2025 sets out how we will implement and resource the community's vision described in "Our Community Plan" in terms of money, people and assets.

The draft plan was adopted by Council on 28 June, 2022. You can view the adopted plan here

The plan contains three chapters:

The Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP) sets out how the vision in "Our Community Plan" can be achieved in terms of money. The LTFP addresses the financial challenges that impact Council's ability to fund its services and projects whilst remaining financially sustainable.

The LTFP is used as a tool to aid decision making, to set priorities, and to solve problems. Although it has a 10 year horizon, the plan is reviewed and updated annually to keep pace with any changes that might impact council's financial environment.

The LTFP includes information on:

  • How council will survive future financial pressures
  • Opportunities for future income and economic growth
  • Whether council can afford what the community requests, and
  • How council can achieve outcomes agreed with the community

The Workforce Management Plan maximises the capacity of Council's workforce resources to meet the vision and goals of "Our Community Plan". The Plan focuses on current and future staffing needs to ensure Council has the right people, in the right roles, at the right time to deliver services to our community. The Plan helps Council to prepare for future needs and address emerging challenges early.

The Workforce Management Plan includes:

  • A profile of our existing workforce
  • How we will build our future workforce
  • Identification of future challenges
  • Financial considerations
  • How the plan links to other IP&R plans
  • How we will measure progress

The Asset Management Plan sets out how council will manage and account for assets it manages on behalf of the community in an efficient and sustainable way.

Assets include roads, water and sewerage systems, bridges, buildings, footpaths, parks and gardens, and other physical infrastructure.

The Asset Management Plan sets out the cost to the community of each asset, and how the asset fits into the cost-effective delivery of services to the community importantly the plan helps council to plan for the financial impact of future assets.
