Angus Council has today (Friday 16 May) published its first version of a combined Council Delivery Plan, which provides a single document outlining Angus Council’s planned service delivery for the financial year 2025/26.
Commitments set out in the various sections of this document cover the following:
- Strategic Planning Context – references the strategic plans which provide details of the key areas that operational activity will focus over the period, generally up to 2028.
- Consultation Feedback to Inform 2025/26 Approach – provides an
overview of feedback from the recent public consultation to inform the
decisions on how best to prioritise finite resources and maintain a
balanced budget for 2025/26.
- Financial Plan – sets out the key financial parameters within which the
Council is required to operate in 2025/26.
- Service Plan – identifies the priority areas of work that services will focus on during 2025/26 and references specific plans where these have already been agreed.
- Change Plan – sets out the key areas where services will undergo change and transformation during 2025/26, including projects that will deliver savings, alongside other projects that focus on investment, innovation and enabling new and improved ways of working to support service delivery.
- Workforce Plan – sets out the strategic approach to managing the
workforce to ensure the council’s most valued asset is managed, developed and supported to deliver the best possible outcomes and impact.
- 2025/26 Budget Decisions – sets out the key budget decisions agreed by the Council at its special meeting on 27 February 2025, based on the Council Administration Group’s proposals evolving from the base budget position.
The aim of this document is to improve the transparency and accountability of the council and to allow residents to have a clear understanding of what the council is going to deliver in 25/26.
It has been approved at Full Council and adopted by the new Administration as it is based on the budget approved on 27 February 2025.
