Purpose

To update Members on the annual refresh of the
Corporate Plan for 2023- 2028 and presents the actions and key
performance indicators for 2026/27 to Council for approval.

to ensure continued performance monitoring and support for
business-as-usual activities. It aims to provide stability and

administration may prefer to develop a new Corporate Plan or amend
existing priorities.
