Corporate Plan 2023 to 2027
Building a better and fairer future
Our Corporate Plan sets the direction for Dover District Council. It will help us turn ambition into action and work towards our vision of "building a better and fairer future".
The Corporate Plan sets out our vision for the district and the Council over the next four years. It describes our aims and the priority activities we will focus on delivering. The Corporate Plan does not try to capture everything we do – instead, it provides a framework for our decisions – how we prioritise and allocate the resources we have available to achieve these priorities. It is the key strategy from which our budget, service plans, and individual objectives cascade.
Full Council approved our Corporate Plan on 29 November 2023.
Please see the sections below for further information.
