Implementation and evaluation
Implementation
The Boroondara Community Plan sets the long-term strategic direction for our organisation. As shown in the diagram below, it also directly informs the Council Plan, the Municipal Strategic Statement and Council strategies, plans, policies and actions.
The plan will be implemented through our annual commitments set out in Council’s Annual Budget.
Evaluating and refreshing the plan
To ensure the Boroondara Community Plan continues to meet community needs, we have developed a comprehensive evaluation framework to monitor our progress toward achieving the strategic objectives and strategies set out in the plan.
Reporting will be incorporated into the City of Boroondara’s corporate reporting framework, which presents a comprehensive picture of our performance. To ensure accountability and transparency, we will:
- publish the annual commitments in the Annual Budget and report on the progress in the Annual Report
- actively consult the community through various channels, including the annual Boroondara Community Satisfaction Survey.
We'll review the plan each council term (every 4 years) to ensure we stay aligned with new trends, demands and changes to community and government priorities. We will refresh and update the plan in line with the next new council term in 2021.
