In the years when we do not produce a Long Term Plan, an Annual Plan is prepared to detail the work programme and expenditure for the coming year.
The Annual Plan also highlights any variations for the coming year from what was proposed in the current Long Term Plan. Where there are notable variations, reasons are provided as well as the financial impact of these changes.
The financial year beginning 1 July 2022 is the second year of Council’s Long Term Plan 2021/2031. This Annual Plan does not contain any significant changes from Year 2 of the Long Term Plan 2021-2031.
As a result, we are not required to consult on the Annual Plan itself in accordance with section 95(2A) of the Local Government Act 2002. Instead, we are engaging with our community by providing this key information about the budgets and work programme that they can expect to see us complete throughout the 2022/23 year.
Council plans to formally adopt the 2022/23 Annual Plan on 28 June 2022. A draft version is available below, and at Council offices and libraries in Fairlie and Twizel.
