THE Golden Plains Shire draft asset management strategy and policy is open for community consultation after it was approved for public exhibition at last week\u2019s council meeting.<\/p>\n
The document has been updated to align with growing asset management needs in the area and to ensure they are overseen in a sustainable way.<\/p>\n
Residents can share their thoughts on the draft until Friday 10 May and any feedback will contribute to the final document which will be presented back to councillors in June.<\/p>\n
The policy and strategy outlines a coordinated approach to managing assets essential to the Shire and defines principles which aid their sustained management.<\/p>\n
Mayor Cr Brett Cunningham encouraged the community to share their thoughts on the document.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe asset management policy adheres to best practices, meeting the requirements of the National Asset Management Assessment Framework,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt will enable Council to implement a coordinated approach to the management of all assets essential to Council\u2019s strategic and operational goals,\u201d Cr Cunningham said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI encourage community members to review these draft documents and provide feedback. Your input will help shape Council\u2019s decision making and planning to ensure we continue to improve our asset management.\u201d<\/p>\n
