Other strategic planning may be undertaken by a council to support the achievement of outcomes in specific areas identified in the Community Strategic Plan. For example, the Local Environmental Plan (LEP), a Cultural Plan, an Economic and Tourism Strategy, or an Ageing Population Plan may be prepared to guide council in its achievement of these aspects of the Community Strategic Plan. This planning must always be linked back to and align with the high level strategies of the Community Strategic Plan. A number of resources are available to support council planning and alignment with State government planning:
