Strategic Priorities

Town Council sets Strategic Priorities supported by a 'Work Program" to ensure the achievement of the set priorities. These priorities help to set Town budgets and annual capital and operating plans. They are reviewed every quarter or more often as required—as priorities are completed, other priorities move up the list, working alongside the Chief Administrative Officer and Senior Leadership Team.
