Central Coast Council invited the community to provide their feedback on the Draft Delivery Program 2022-2025 (the Program) between 20 December 2021 and 21 January 2022.

The Delivery Program (including the Operational Plan) details the actions that Council will take (through projects, programs and other activities) to deliver the Community Strategic Plan (CSP), One – Central Coast.

The Program is a three year plan that covers the 2022-23, 2023-24 and 2024-25 financial years. It has been developed in consideration of Council’s serious financial situation and will be used to support Council’s exploration of the options available to maintain its services and rates via the Special Rate Variation process with IPART.

The community are invited to view the Draft Delivery Program 2022-2025 (including the Operational Plan) available in the document library on this page.

Submissions were to be addressed to the Chief Executive Officer, Mr David Farmer between 20 December 2021 and 21 January 2022.

Your attention is drawn to the provisions of the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009 which allows for possible access to certain public and personal documentation. View our privacy statement.

Thank you to those who provided submissions and feedback on the draft Delivery Program (including Operational Plan). All feedback has been thoroughly reviewed and recommendations were made in a Council Report.

At the meeting of Council on 3 February 2022, Council considered submissions received during the public exhibition period and proposed amendments as a result of submissions or other means. The Delivery Program and Fees and Charge 2022-23 was adopted.

As also noted, Council will undertake another exhibition in May 2022. As Council has had to unavoidably exhibit these IP&R documents over the December 2021 and January 2022 holiday period. These documents do not come into effect until 1 July 2022 and given their importance, this will allow for further amendments, based on community need and new information coming to light, to be considered.

Yes. At the meeting of Council on 3 February 2022, Council resolved to proceed with its application to IPART to secure the current rate income for a further 7 years.
