Council Plan 2025-29

Visit our Council Plan 2025-29 page to read more about Council Plan.

A Council Plan outlines the priorities of the council and councillors over the 4 years of a council term, to achieve MV2040.

Our plan combines the Council Plan, the Municipal Public Health and Wellbeing Plan and the Disability Action Plan. These are all plans the State Government requires Councils to develop and deliver. The inclusion of those 2 plans gives the Council Plan a strong focus on disability, accessibility, LGBTIQA+ inclusion and the prevention of family violence.

Budget

Every year Council updates a rolling 4-year budget, describing in more detail the services and initiatives from the Financial Plan that Council will fund over the next 4 years.

The adopted Budget includes funding allocated to deliver services and programs, and to maintain infrastructure and improve facilities. This helps ensure every resident, from newborns to pensioners, has access to the Council services they need most. It also explains how we will afford to continue to maintain, upgrade and replace ageing infrastructure.

Other plans and strategies

Council is required to have a range of different plans and strategies under a number of different pieces of legislation.
