Introduction
In order to prioritise and identify various projects, initiatives and services funded and delivered by Mapoon Aboriginal Shire Council on behalf of the community each year, Council undertakes a robust process to ensure all proposed items align with Council’s long-‐term goals and strategies.
This process involves identifying the risks and opportunities associated with pursuing or not pursing a specific item leading to informed decision making. This risk-‐based approach enables Council to appropriately prioritise spending and the allocation of resources each year, whilst at the same time identifying possible future resourcing priorities.
The Operational Plan is an annual document which outlines activities and actions Council will undertake for the financial year in accordance with the adopted budget. These activities and actions directly align to Council’s Corporate Plan strategies and overall themes.
The purpose of this plan is to highlight Council’s significant service to our community and to state the program schedule for the financial period 2019/20.
Council is obligated to discharge its responsibilities for this plan in accordance with the budget. A report will be issued to the Council and will outline the operational performance, note significant factors that are affecting the service delivery and how it will manage associated risks.
The Operational Plan 2019/20 details the significant initiatives our Council will undertake during the 2019/20 financial year, as we advance towards the achievement of our strategic goals and key focus areas.
In accordance, with the Local Government Regulation, the annual Operational Plan must state how the local government will:
1. Progress the implementation of the Corporate Plan and;
2. Manage operational risks.
The Operational Plan forms part of a package of Council planning documents including the Corporate Plan and annual Budget which guide the organisation in delivering outcomes for the region. Further, it ensures major priorities and initiatives (including core business service delivery) are appropriately funded as required by the Local Government Act and Regulations.

A message from the CEO
Mapoon Aboriginal Shire Council (MASC) led by Mayor Addo, has an ongoing commitment to transparency and ensuring that Mapoon is well placed to meet the demands of its community.
Council currently deliver Roads, Rubbish and Essential Services as well as Community Services and job creation. There has been a substantial population growth in Mapoon in recent years since 2012, approximately 100%, due to peoples desire to return to their country and as consequence Mapoon is growing fast.
Mapoon is one of the smallest and most remote Councils in Australia. MASC continues to grow and provide opportunities for its people. Mayor Addo does not shy away from the challenges faced
on a daily basis and is prepared to go against the norm to get results with support from her executive team.
Recently, MASC has been dedicated to expanding infrastructure in Mapoon to suit community needs and to improve livability for Mapoon residents. The community consist of a council administration building, shop, school, clinic and workshop.
Our size and remoteness is often underestimated, we are strategically shaping our current environment to become the tourism hub of the Western Cape that promotes economic development for our residents.
In order to maintain progress, five strategic core values outline expected operations in a clear concise sectioning:
• Clear vision and plans
• Community engagement
• Leadership
• Stability and
• Shared responsibility
Issues relating to the capacity building of staff and the ability to maintain a strong

skilled workforce will continue to challenge the Council. However, administration will continue to operate according to the principal of ‘good governance’ focusing on change management, sound management practices, business efficiency, procurement, training and personnel development.
This Council will continue to work with our community and all stakeholders, particularly State and Federal Government, to provide all required services and deliver funded infrastructure contracts.

Local Government at a glimpse
The following characteristics make local government ‘council’ organisations different from other industries:

• The nature of competition is different
• Councils provide services to stakeholders in the municipal area (geographic boundaries)
