The Annual Report is a legislative requirement under the Local Government Act 2009 and Local Government Regulation 2012.
At the end of each financial year, Council produces an Annual Report to show how we’ve performed as an organisation. It gives our community a clear summary of what we delivered, how we used public funds, and how our results compare to the goals and outcomes set in in our 2021 - 2026 Corporate Plan(PDF, 8MB) and 2024/25 Operational Plan and Budget. Most importantly, it helps residents understand how Council is contributing to the wellbeing, growth and sustainability of our region.
