Plans, performance and budget

Council operates within the NSW Government's legislated integrated planning and reporting (IP&R) framework.

The framework ensures that the community's vision, priorities and aspirations for Inner West's future are captured in a Community Strategic Plan. This guides Council's strategic and operational planning, resourcing and service delivery. It also ensures ongoing monitoring, evaluation and community engagement.

IP&R asks councils and their communities to consider and respond to the following:

Where are we now?
Where do we want to be?
How will we get there?
How will we know when we have arrived?

This forms the basis for the following plans and performance:
