Delivery Program 2018/19-2020/21

In accordance with statutory Integrated Planning and Reporting requirements, Council has prepared a fixed term Delivery Program. The Delivery Program is a ‘statement of commitment’ to the community from each newly elected council.

In preparing the Delivery Program, Council is accounting for its stewardship of the community's long-term goals as identified in the North Sydney Community Strategic Plan 2018-2028, outlining what it intends to do towards achieving the desired outcomes during its term of office and what its priorities will be. All projects, services and funding allocations are directly linked to this plan.

The Delivery Program also informs and is informed by Council's Resourcing Strategy 2018-2028. The Delivery Program includes financial estimate of income and expenditure for the period 2018/19-2020/21. The financial estimates in the Delivery Program are based on Scenario 3 of the Long Term Financial Plan.
