West Coast Council Annual Plan 2021–2022 3 Strategic Planning at the West Coast Council

West Coast Community The key document guiding the West Coast Council is the West Coast Plan 2025 (as revised) Community Plan 2025 (as revised). This document sets the community’s (WCCP2025) vision, the outcomes, and actions that the community hope to achieve.

West Coast Sport and Recreation Plan (Sport and Recreation Plan) West Coast Mountain Bike Trails Strategy (MTB Strategy) Sitting below this are a range of other strategies and plans West Coast Livable Communities (Aged Care) Strategy (Aged Care Strategy) that require the support and West Coast Aquatic Facilities Strategy and Business Plan action of the community or (Aquatic Facilities Strategy) other stakeholders. West Coast Weed Management Plan (Weed Management Plan) West Coast Long Term Financial Plan West Coast Waste Strategy – Transfer Station Infrastructure 2018–2028 (Waste Strategy)

West Coast Council The tasks required of Council, along with our statutory obligations, all Corporate Plan 2020–2025 provide guidance to the creation of the West Coast Council Corporate Plan. (Corporate Plan) The Corporate Plan is the document which identifies how these whole of community strategies impact the West Coast Council and guide the organisation to be ready to deliver on them.

Sitting underneath the Corporate Plan, Council develops a range of operational plans, asset management plans, policies and strategies that guide how we manage our operations and assets.

Together the outcomes and action items in these documents, when considered against the current context, form the basis of the West Coast Council Annual Plan which is the primary driver of actions over a financial year.

During the year we also expect to deliver a revised MTB Trails Strategy and the West Coast Walks Strategy.
