Our council plan
We have committed to a five-year plan that will deliver the priorities to our communities. We developed our Council Plan document with our communities, it shows how we will deliver our aim:
Please note: A North Ayrshire that is fair for all. Our mission is working together to improve the lives of our people in North Ayrshire.
The 'Our' in 'Our Council Plan' refers to both the council and our residents as it was created, and will be delivered, in partnership. Our residents are at the heart of our plan. Our four priorities are:
Wellbeing
To transition to a wellbeing economy, delivering prosperity, wellbeing and resilience for local people.
Communities and Local Democracy
We will have active, inclusive and resilient communities.
Climate Change
Achieving net-zero by 2030.
A Sustainable Council
A Community Wealth Building Council that is efficient and accessible, maximising investment and focusing resources on our priorities.
We are aware that many of the issues we face in North Ayrshire are extremely complex and will take longer than five years to resolve. Each Council Plan builds on previous progress to help address areas such as child poverty in our communities and climate change.
Quote: This plan is not simply a document, it is our living contract with our communities in North Ayrshire. It is the most important plan for our Council as it contains the priorities of our residents, it is our joint plan, ‘Our Council Plan’. Our Council Plan explains how we will meet our communities’ needs and expectations over the next five years. It helps steer resources to the areas that can make the greatest difference to the lives of our people in North Ayrshire both now and in the future.
