Leader's introduction - Councillor Adam Zerny
Our aim is to produce a plan for the future. Something all of us can identify with.
We don't want it just to come across like a corporate document.
And we want it to be ambitious; not just a statement of what the Council already does.
The Strategic Plan looks to create an inclusive, sustainable, and resilient community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive and contribute to our collective well-being.
We want to put in place new initiatives which help provide homes for the next generation, while protecting our natural environment and seeking to tackle climate change.
We wish to help provide care for those who need it. We must support education, and we should provide an environment in which businesses can grow, thus bringing jobs for our residents.
Maybe some parts of the plan won't go as far as you would like, but this won't stop us from striving to go above and beyond.
Crucially, we want to do this through proactive community engagement. By listening to, and learning from, our residents.
This is about all of us.
Our Community. Our Environment.
