Our sustainability vision is to ensure there is efficient management of planning, acquisition and disposal, operation and effective maintenance and growth of Council-owned properties. To do this, we focus on:

  • Better decision making: capital expenditure decisions should be based on rigorous and fully documented economic appraisals that take into account benefits and risks as well as financial parameters.
  • Improved planning and budgeting: the planning process helps identify gaps between existing assets gaps and assets required and also helps in budgeting process.
  • Improved reporting: reporting on service delivery potential, continued service delivery needs and economic viability.
  • Asset management planning: a central asset planning and control data repository.
  • Sweating of fixed assets: design assets in the most cost effective and operation efficient way.
  • Asset classification: asset class reflecting needs rather than reporting requirements.
  • Building efficiency: efficient asset life cycle operational and maintenance costs
  • Portfolio growth: have a long-term vision of future utilisation of developable land.
