Our Corporate and Performance Plan 2006-2009
(546.73 KB) sets out our vision and priorities for the next three years and summarises what we have achieved during the last twelve months.
Our priorities for 2006/7 are:
| Community safety | Community Safety is “community based action to prevent and remedy the causes and consequences of criminal, intimidatory and other related anti-social behaviour.” Redditch Borough Council supports the Redditch Community Safety Partnership to deliver the Community Safety Strategy. The Strategy contains five themes which are mirrored in the aims of the Council’s Corporate Plan. The Council and the RCSP aim to keep Redditch safe and to keep all parts of the community feeling safe |
| Environment and transport | Redditch has a distinctive natural environment, built form and transport network. With over 5 million trees and shrubs to manage, around 30,000 bins to empty each week, 160 listed buildings to protect and 94 underpasses to clean the Council makes a significant contribution to maintaining and enhancing the environment. We aim to manage and support these assets, with the help of our partners, for the present and future good of the Borough |
| Housing | The Council's corporate housing agenda is encompassed by the Housing Strategy Statement 2005-2009 adopted by the council and passed 'fit for purpose' by the Government Office for the West Midlands. It describes how housing will develop in Redditch and the contribution that the Council and its main partners will make to achieving this. |
| Leisure | The Council is committed to increasing the number of people accessing sports, arts and heritage activities and their frequency of participation. There is a need to ensure that the facilities and activities are relevant to the customers’ needs and perceptions. It is therefore a constant requirement to improve the quality of the facilities and create new ones that help to satisfy the demand. |
| To be a well managed organisation | Redditch Borough Council strives to be a well managed organisation. and to be at the heart of developing the local economy, environment and community. In our role as a community leader, we have established the Redditch Partnership and have led the development of the 20-20 Vision - Community Strategy. In our role as a service provider we pursue the delivery of high quality, cost effective services to realise the aims of the Corporate Plan and the Community Strategy and the aspirations of the stakeholders in Redditch. |
