Annual Plans

An Annual Plan is produced in the years when the Council does not prepare a Long Term Plan (LTP). The purpose of the Annual Plan is to fine tune the costs and funding from that originally proposed in the LTP.

The Annual Plan must be adopted by the Council prior to the beginning of the financial year to which it relates. Where the Council is proposing a significant or material change from what was planned through the LTP, the Council will consult on the changes before the Annual Plan is adopted. Note that the Council no longer produces a draft Annual Plan.
