Policy & Resources Committee are recommended to approve the Corporate Plan and Medium Term Financial Strategy 2015-19.

The Corporate Plan is part of the council’s policy framework. Based on previous plans the intention for 2015-19 is to provide a more concise plan with a clearer focus on the council’s purpose, service modernisation and prioritisation to meet the challenges ahead.

This is aligned to city principles and priorities agreed in the Sustainable community strategy. Specific options for areas of investment identified in the plan will be developed, with partners and city partnerships, to ensure the best use of overall community, public and private sector resources in the city.
