The Port Augusta City Council adopted its initial Strategic Management Plan in 2002 and undertook a review of the Plan in early 2004. The Plan expires in 2007 and a comprehensive review of the City’s Strategic Management Plan will be implemented in January 2007 with the new Council. Council made a major commitment to Economic Development, Social Vision and City Image in its first Plan, and has been successful in achieving many great outcomes since 2002. Council annually participates in the Comparative Performance Measurement Report which incorporates a Community Survey undertaken by Roy Morgan Research. The community survey provides an opportunity for the community to provide feedback to Council on their perspective of Council’s performance in 7 areas. The areas evaluated include: 1. Strategic Directions 2. Community Consultation 3. Council Services 4. Quality of Life 5. Public Access to Information 6. Asset/Infrastructure Management 7. Safety & Security The results of the 2006 Comparative Performance Measurement Report, showing comparisons to previous years are included within Section 4 of this report. Budgets and Business Plans are developed each year outlining projects that will be undertaken and which reflect the aspirations and intent of the Strategic Management Plan. Council included within its 2005/2006 budget: $2.74m for upgrades to accommodate 13 new aged care beds and Nerrilda Nursing Home and A.M.
