Integrated Planning and Reporting

Have your say

City of Newcastle's (CN) Delivery Program and Operational Plan are known as Delivering Newcastle 2040. 

Delivering Newcastle 2040 is one of our most important documents as it demonstrates how we will achieve the community’s vision and priorities, including clear actions that guide the delivery of our services and projects.

Delivering Newcastle 2040 is prepared annually to provide the community with an outline of the commitments and projects we will undertake over the coming year to continue striving towards our goal of making Newcastle a liveable, sustainable, inclusive global city.

Between 26 April and 5pm 24 May 2024, the community is invited to have your say on how we’re planning to deliver your vision for a liveable, sustainable, inclusive global city. Your feedback will help to guide our priorities and actions for the next financial year 2024-2025.

Integrated Planning and Reporting

Integrated Planning and Reporting (IP&R) legislation was introduced by the NSW State Government in 2013 and sets requirements for all Councils to lead the development of long term plans for their city, detailing community aspirations and strategic directions.

City of Newcastle has embraced this opportunity to engage with our community to ensure our planning and reporting is informed, relevant and responsive to community needs.

Our Community Engagement Strategy provides a framework for how the community can participate in our planning and decision-making'.
