    The Draft Annual Business Plan and Budget 2022/23 has been developed in the context of delivering our long-term strategic direction set out in the City of Adelaide 2020-2024 Strategic Plan and in the context of the challenges, financial constraints, and opportunities arising from COVID-19.

    Each year, we develop our annual Business Plan and Budget in alignment to our long-term strategies: Council’s Strategic Plan, Long Term Financial Plan and Strategic Asset Management Plans. This ensures we stay on course to achieve our objectives. To support this, we also develop Service Plans by listening to and working with our community, businesses, other levels of government and visitors, and by considering external factors. This helps us to understand, cost and plan for today and the future and ensures continued and sustainable services are delivered for our communities. The proposed services and budget initiatives in this Plan have been formed based on information and insights, in response to what we know about our city and our communities from our research and engagement activities (please refer to page 14 of the document for further information, by clicking here).
