City of Stirling Corporate Business Plan

ABOUT THE CITY OF STIRLING

Message from the Mayor and Chief Executive Officer

The City of Stirling is proud to present the Corporate Business Plan 2025–2029, which outlines how we will continue delivering on our community’s long-term

vision in Sustainable Stirling 2022–2032. As the largest local government by population, serving over 249,000 residents, we have a clear vision to be a sustainable City with a local focus. This plan guides us on our mission, reflecting the priorities of our growing and diverse City and sets out the projects and services that will shape the City over the next four years. This strengthens our Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework by clearly linking services and projects to strategic objectives and allocated resources. In 2025/26, we will see the delivery of these services and projects that will benefit the community and contribute to our sustainable future. These include a feasibility study and concept designs for the Inglewood Youth Parkland to support youth wellbeing. Activation of public space and planned upgrades to Carine Regional Open Space will also occur, with improvements to the playground, footpaths, shelter, and picnic facilities and the completion of the upgrade to the Mirrabooka Town Centre. A Crowded Place Assessment will be guiding additional safety

features at the Scarborough Beach Precinct and the commencement of construction on the Hutton Street extension project will improve transport connections in the Herdsman Glendalough area. The delivery of the 2025 local government ordinary election and investment in technology upgrades will support good governance, leadership and innovation. Continuing our best practice approach to accountability and transparency through integrated planning and reporting, the Corporate Business Plan 2025–2029 builds on this strong foundation. We are proud to have been recognised once again for excellence in transparency and reporting, receiving Best in Sector honours for the third year in a row and our 11th consecutive Gold Award at the 2025 Australasian Reporting Awards. This Corporate Business Plan is our commitment to delivering real outcomes for the Stirling community as we work together to create a sustainable City with a local focus.
