On Thursday 11 June 2026, at its Ordinary Meeting, Council resolved to adopt its Regional Plan for 2026-27 in accordance with Section 35 of the Local Government Act 2019.
The Regional Plan outlines Roper Gulf Regional Council’s plan of action for the upcoming financial year. It plays a vital role in outlining the necessary actions to enhance our region for residents, staff, businesses, visitors and the environment.
It is supported by the Strategic Plan 2022-2027 and its five (5) strategic priorities: well-being, environment, infrastructure, economic development, and governance.
The Regional Plan determines the foundation for Council decision making and operational planning for the 2026-27 financial year.
Additionally, it includes the proposed expenditures, revenue rates, and fees and charges outlined in the annual budget.
The strategic priorities and budget reflect the Council’s overall vision for the region and its goals as a local government entity in the remote Northern Territory.
We sincerely acknowledge the valuable contributions of our constituents, elected members, staff, and stakeholders, whose efforts were essential to the development of this Regional Plan.
