Policies

Policy is a statement of strategic intent; it provides Council with a structured framework for consistent and transparent decision-making and actions. Policy demonstrates to the community the position and intent Council will take with regard to an issue identified in the Corporate Plan.

Council Policies are made by resolution of Council and appear on the website for general public viewing. It is a policy statement made at the highest level and assists in the achievement of the Corporate Plan’s objectives. It is generally outwardly focused and will have a direct impact on the community.

Please note: some policies only apply to certain districts. Where this is the case the relevant district is specified.
