Strategic Planning Framework Summary The Strategic Planning Framework (SPF) maps out the role of all current and future Council strategies and plans that work to deliver the vision for the City. The framework works from the highest level of strategic direction in the Community Strategic Plan through to more detailed plans that will eventually drive works projects and programs on the ground. The framework is comprised of the following levels: The COMMUNITY STRATEGIC PLAN (CSP) is our highest level plan and translates the community’s desired outcomes for the city into key destinations. The CSP includes community suggested actions which can be tested in the development of all other plans. LEAD STRATEGIES are Council’s response to the CSP and provide high level strategic direction on key 1 challenges facing the City. They are informed by a sound evidence base that considers key trends and an understanding of the implications of key issues and opportunities on the City. SUPPORTING PLANS break down broad theme areas discussed in LEAD STRATEGIES into smaller 2 themes providing high level actions. SUPPORTING PLANS identify broad works projects and programs required to deliver on these actions. Supporting plans include indicative costing and resourcing requirements and delivery timeframes. DETAILED ACTION PLANS take actions from SUPPORTING PLANS and identify specific works projects and programs 3 required to deliver on these actions. Supporting plans include detailed costing and resourcing requirements and delivery timeframes. GUIDELINES, POLICIES AND CODES provide detailed information, rules for activities or guidance for specific 4 works on Council or other lands.

    UDIA NSW | 2020 Infrastructure Funding Performance Monitor $2.7 billion is currently held as a restricted asset by Councils for the delivery of infrastructure • The current total balance of contributions held across the Greater Sydney megaregion is $2.7 billion, with the average amount held by a Council sitting at $56 million. • Every year new housing contributes almost $900 million to local infrastructure, Executive roads, stormwater, open space and community facilities across the Greater Sydney megaregion through the infrastructure charging framework. It is expected Summary that this infrastructure is built with the funds that are paid. • However, only 64% of the contributions that are paid for were spent in the last three years. Average Total Expenditure Total Income Balance E/I ($’000) ($’000) ($’000) Total 0.64 $650,679 $876,767 $2,653,316 Contributions Under a s7.11 0.85 $564,670 $711,912 $2,330,289 or s7.12 Under a s7.4 0.62 $41,640 $124,180 $259,501 The amount of unspent funding has increased over the past three years • Since FY16 total unspent contributions have increased 33% from $1.98 billion to over $2.65 billion.

If necessary, the State Government should step-in to support Councils get infrastructure on the ground. Increased funding does not correlate to increased infrastructure delivery • The scatter graphs here show an extremely weak relationship between cash held and expenditure ratios.
