Have Your Say on the future of the City of Ryde

City of Ryde’s Community Strategic Plan (CSP) outlines our vision, aspirations, and priorities for the City for the next 10 years and provides a high-level roadmap for how we will get there, together.

This long-term strategy responds to how our community will grow and change, ensuring the City of Ryde remains a vibrant place to live, work, and play.

We are continuing to build on the existing Ryde 2028 Community Strategic Plan as we look to the future direction of the City of Ryde through to 2035.

We invite your contribution in refreshing the Plan to ensure that the key outcome areas from the current CSP reflect the focus for the City of Ryde. Your input will help ensure that our vision and priorities continue to reflect our community and guide our next Four-Year Delivery Program and One-Year Operational Plan.

City of Ryde’s Community Strategic Plan (CSP) outlines our vision, aspirations, and priorities for the city for the next 10+ years and provides a high-level roadmap for how we will get there, together.

It is a long term, whole-of-community strategic plan that all councils must develop on behalf of their communities.

While the Community Strategic Plan sets the strategic direction, Council’s Four-Year Delivery Program details the activities that will be undertaken by Council to perform its functions (e.g. legislative responsibilities and regulatory functions) and deliver on the priorities of the CSP. It outlines the activities, strategies, projects and services that Council plans to deliver over the four-year council term.

This is further broken down in the One-Year Operational Plan which identifies the activities, capital portfolios, actions and projects Council plans to deliver over each financial year. Council provides an Annual Report which details our progress implementing the Four-Year Delivery Program and One-Year Operational Plan.
