Mayor’s Message I am pleased to present our Delivery Program 2022-26. As your newly elected Council, the Councillors and I are determined to provide a plan that proactively responds to our changing environment and helps us deliver for the Moree Plains.

In early 2022, we asked the people of the Moree Plains to tell Council their vision for the next 10 years, how we will get there and the challenges we must address. With your extensive insightful and innovative input, we developed our Community Strategic Plan (CSP) – Our Moree Plains, Our vision to 2032.

This Delivery Program is Council’s commitment to community.

It outlines how we will work towards achieving our shared community vision and the goals and strategies set out in the CSP. Our community is on the cusp of transformational economic and social growth with the State and Federal government’s investment in the Moree SAP and Inland Rail. It is not only our challenge, but our civic duty, to capitalise on this investment and make Moree Plains a safe, sustainable community with a thriving economy.

Thank you to those who provided their feedback on the draft Program to help us finalise our projects and activities for the next four years.

We know our Moree Plains is a unique and diverse region, rich with opportunity and culture. It is somewhere we are proud to call our home. It is a place we want to live, work, grow, invest and play. On behalf of my fellow Councillors, we look forward to working with you to help make the Moree Plains of tomorrow even better than it is today.

Delivering together Council’s role All levels of government, stakeholders, community organisations and individuals share responsibility for achieving our shared vision for the Moree Plains. However, Council takes a lead role in implementing the Delivery Program which sets out what activities Council will undertake over the next four years.

Council’s role in implementing the Delivery Program varies depending on the strategy being pursued:

Advocate Council gives a voice to the community by lobbying and advocating to ensure major priorities are known and promoted to other decision-making organisations for the best possible outcomes for the Shire.

Advocacy works best when we work together with community leaders and stakeholders to form a clear and united voice.

Leader Council shows strong, transparent and visionary leadership. Council demonstrates excellence in everything we do, driving unity and mobilising and empowering others to help our community achieve our shared vision.

Partner Council collaborates and joins forces with providers and stakeholders to bring best possible outcomes for the community to fruition.

Provider Council effectively and efficiently delivers services, facilities and programs to community at agreed service levels. Some services in this Plan, such as education and health are provided by other government agencies but critical to achieving the community vision.

Regulator Council has statutory responsibilities to regulate certain functions as required by state and federal legislation.

Our partners As part of delivering on our strategies to achieve the community vision, we partner with a range of stakeholders including government representatives and agencies, private and not-for-profit organisations and Aboriginal and community groups.

These stakeholders include but are not limited to: • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

ARTC Arts NSW Australian Department of Health Border Region of Councils (BROC) Catholic Schools Country University Centre North West (CUC) CSIRO Destination NSW Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) Heritage NSW Hunter New England Health Independent Planning and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) Infrastructure NSW Local Aboriginal Land Councils (LALCs)

Our Delivery Program How to read the Delivery Program This Delivery Program sets out the strategies and actions for how Council will work to achieve the shared community vision to 2032.

For each of our community themes and goals, we detail: • • • • • •

the activities Council will take over the next four years to progress each goal whether that activity is operational, regulatory or project-based the strategic document it relates to (if applicable) how we will measure performance (outputs and outcomes) the year/s in which the activity will be delivered the functional area of Council that will deliver the activity.

This Delivery Program also includes a four-year budget forecast from 2022/23 to 2025/26 for delivering these activities.

Supporting our program Workforce Management Strategy Workforce planning ensures that we have the people we need to achieve the shared community vision and deliver the activities in our Delivery Program over 4 years. Our Workforce Management Strategy outlines how we will develop and prepare our workforce to meet the changing demands of our community as well as the challenge of attracting and retaining a skilled workforce.

The Strategy includes: • •

analysis of our current workforce, consideration of future needs, identification of gaps and challenges actions to develop effective leadership, retain and attract a diverse and capable workforce, improve productivity and leverage technology, promote Council as an employer of choice, improve workforce planning, develop a good culture and contemporary workplace, and invest in skills and training.

Asset Management Strategy and Plans Asset management is the combination of management, financial, economic, engineering and other practices applied to physical assets with the objective of providing the required level of service in the most cost-effective manner. Council adopts the principles of financial sustainability, inter-generational equity, probity in acquisition and disposal in our integrated asset management system to ensure our assets are fit for purpose and meet the needs of our current community without comprising the needs of future generations.

Council is custodian to $681 million of infrastructure and community assets that enable us to provide services to the Shire and the activities in our Delivery Program. These assets include: • • • • • • • •

roads and footpaths airports stormwater drainage water systems sewer systems community facilities (such as halls or pools) parks and open spaces administration buildings and works depots.

The Asset Management Strategy is a 10-year document that sets the current situation of our assets, where we want to be and actions we will undertake to get there. The four Asset Plans across our asset classes (Buildings and Other Structures, Sewer, Transport and Water) set out the assets under Council’s control, community expectations on levels of service and actions and resources required to deliver on this level of service, and long-term projections of asset maintenance, rehabilitation, renewal and replacement. These projections link to our Long-Term Financial Plan and are reviewed annually.

Long-Term Financial Plan Council’s Long-Term Financial Plan is a 10-year document that’s reviewed annually that identifies the financial impacts of providing services and assets to the community. It helps us plan how we will financially resource the services and assets identified through the annual budget process, which draw direction from our Community Strategic Plan, Delivery Program, Workforce Strategy and Asset Management Strategy.

Council is budgeting a surplus over the four-year period. This surplus, and a planned surplus of future years, puts Council in a good position to deliver priority infrastructure projects that will be required to facilitate expected growth resulting from the Moree SAP and Inland Rail. Further information about Council’s current financial position can be found in the Operational Plan and Budget 2022/23.

Delivery Program 2022-26

Page 86

Productivity and efficiency improvements Through the service review process, Council will improve our productivity, efficiency, financial management and governance of the council for identified service areas. The Delivery Program also includes specific actions for the organisation’s improvement across these areas.

Council also has the Audit Risk and Improvement Committee. This Committee schedules audits across Council areas for improved risk management and organisational performance, developing improvement requirements and then monitoring and reporting on the implementation.

Four-year budget The following budget sheets provide a forecast of our cash flow and budget for the next four years.

This year IPART has completed its review of the local government rate peg methodology to include population growth. On 10 September 2021 IPART provided the Final Report on this review to the Minister for Local Government, the Hon. Shelley Hancock MP. The Minister has endorsed the new rate peg methodology and has asked IPART to give effect to it in setting the rate peg from the 2022-23 financial year.

The new population peg component ranges between 0% and 4.3%. For Moree Plains, IPART determined the 2022/2023 rate peg to be 0.7% being 0.7% LGCI and 0.0% population component. This year’s CPI December 2020 to December 2021 is 3.5%.

The Office of Local Government (OLG) released a Press Release and Circular to Councils on 7 March 2022 advising of a one-off Additional Special Variation (ASV). This is for the 2022-2023 financial year only.

Council successfully applied for the ASV and adopted the rate peg of 2.28% for the 2022/2023 rating year.

Measuring success Success against our actions in the Delivery Program will be measured by both outputs (the things we did) and outcomes (the results of what we did). For each community theme, we have identified measures of success (or Key Performance Indicators) for outputs in our Delivery Program. The measures for outcomes are set in our Community Strategic Plan. These two types of measures will tell us how we are tracking towards achieving our community goals.

The sources for these measures include Council’s internal reporting as well as publications from various agencies and organisations such as the Australian Bureau of Statistics. We may also survey our community to understand their perceptions and attitudes, satisfaction and agreement levels with services, facilities or programs.

Reporting and informing Council is responsible for providing regular reports to the community on the progress being made towards achieving the shared community vision. We will also regularly communicate on major priorities and projects through our media and social media channels.
