Memorandum by the Chief Executive Officer

To Council:

The City of Sydney is governed by the Local Government Act 1993, Local Government (General) Regulation 2021, the City of Sydney Act 1988 and other relevant legislation.

The Local Government Act 1993 includes principles for local government that councils need to consider when carrying out their responsibilities. These include integrated planning and reporting which incorporates a range of plans and reports, including this End of Term report.

This End of Term report is an update on the progress in implementing the City's Community Strategic Plan - Sustainable Sydney 2030, over the 2017-2021 Council term.

The End of Term Report 2017-2021 provided at Attachment A to the subject memorandum fulfils the requirement to present to Council an update on the progress in implementing the City's Community Strategic Plan - Sustainable Sydney 2030, over the current Council term. This report summarises the progress towards the objectives and community outcomes and describes the activities undertaken and key measures and trends.

An End of Term report is usually prepared every four years and is required to be presented at the last council meeting before the Local Government elections. Local Government elections scheduled for 2020 were delayed until 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This end of term report covers the extended five-year Council term.

Moved by the Chair (the Lord Mayor), seconded by Councillor Miller –

It is resolved that Council note the End of Term report for the period 2017-2021 as shown at Attachment A to the subject memorandum.

Carried unanimously.
