Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework

Local governments are required to adopt as part of the Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework:

  • Strategic Community Plan (SCP) – 10-year plan, which is our guiding strategy that is informed by community aspirations for the future.
  • Corporate Business Plan (CBP) – 4-year plan, which details the resources and priorities required to implement the first four years of the SCP.

The Framework provides local governments with a guide for translating community priorities and aspirations into operational objectives. The plans developed as part of the Framework detail how we plan to deliver the objectives and report on our progress. The CBP is a key part of the City’s Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework.

Integrated Planning and Reporting places a realistic, integrated and accountable system of longer-term strategic planning and management, to enable local governments to deliver their strategic and organisational objectives.

As depicted below, the City’s Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework outlines how the framework is applied at the City:

Strategic Community Plan

The Strategic Community Plan (SCP) is the City’s guiding strategic document and sets out our vision for the future and will guide our actions over the next 10 years. It reflects the values and priorities of you, our community, and ensures our decisions and actions align with your aspirations for our City. 

Our Vision of the City of Bayswater in 2035: Growing a connected, innovative, sustainable City.

This SCP will deliver on the vision articulated by you, the community, under five key result areas: Social, Built, Natural, Economic, and Leadership and Governance.
