What are Reserve Management Plans?
Reserve Management Plans provide general direction for the management and expenditure of a particular reserve for a period of 5 years. The preparation of Reserve Management Plans is a statutory requirement under the Reserves Act 1977. Implementation is carried out through the Annual Plan process. Plans can be specific to an individual reserve, or relate to a group of reserves.
Reserve Management Plans give a general indication of the intended use and development of reserves. They often contain suggestions for various works or improvements. Once the Plan is adopted these proposals are costed and incorporated into long-term financial strategies however they are subject to funds becoming available and prioritisation against work elsewhere. Generally they are implemented on the basis of community priorities and within a flexible time frame. In some cases proposals may be reconsidered as a consequence of future review.
