A plan for Lichfield District 2012 - 2016 (our strategic plan)

Welcome from Councillor Mike Wilcox, Leader of Lichfield District Council and Chairman of Lichfield District Strategic Partnership

We are committed to improving Lichfield District.

In our Plan for Lichfield District 2012 - 2016 we set out our ambitions for the area, and how we will work as a council and in partnership with other parts of the public sector, community and voluntary organisations and businesses to achieve these aims over the next four years.

As you can imagine, pulling a plan together for the district is a big task. We started with the things councillors told us are important to residents in their areas.

We put this alongside what we know through our research and consultations with local people, and what we know about our district through the evidence we have gathered. We also used our existing plans and strategies, as well as the plans and strategies of our partners, to help shape this plan. We have tried to look forward to identify emerging needs and trends.

And, most importantly, we have spoken to local people and groups to make sure that our plan is right for the district and right for them. Vitally, our plan is endorsed by local partners, to make sure we work together well with shared vision and goals. It is also underpinned by sound financial planning to ensure we can deliver what we set out to achieve.

Above all, our new district plan will help to channel our resources and energies into supporting the people who live, work and visit here.

Please find out more and read our plan.

If you would like to give feedback on our plan, please do contact me.
