Don Cameron JP Clive Manley MAYOR CHIEF EXECUTIVE RUAPEHU DISTRICT COUNCIL – ANNUAL REPORT 2019/20 SECTION 1 - PAGE 3 WHAT IS AN ANNUAL REPORT The local authority is required to produce a plan showing how it will achieve the purpose of Local Government that is to meet the current and future needs of the community. The local authority demonstrates its contribution towards this purpose in the setting of Strategic Goals (SGs) and in the development of a Long Term Plan (LTP). The LTP describes what a local authority aims to achieve over a minimum period of ten years. The LTP must be produced once every three years, with an Annual Plan for the years in between. The Annual Plan provides the budget for the coming year and explains any changes from the LTP. The first year of the LTP is the Annual Plan for that year. The Annual Report is used to monitor the local authority’s progress against the SGs and work programmes identified in the 2018-28 LTP and against budgets contained within the 2018-28 LTP and 2019-20 Annual Plan.
