Blaby District Plan
We are pleased to introduce the Blaby District Plan for 2024 to 2028. The Plan embodies our collective commitment to enhancing the district to ensure it remains a great place to live, work and visit.
It's important to remember this Plan is not just for the Council; it's for everyone in Blaby District. It's an inclusive journey which involves our residents, businesses, the voluntary sector, communities and partner organisations.
The Plan sets out four main challenges facing the district: climate change, service delivery, housing growth and health. Notably, the challenge relating to service delivery is based on future funding, anticipating reductions and increased demands on the Council. As a result the Council foresees a budget deficit of £4.9 million by the financial year 2027/2028.
Our vision
At the core of the Blaby District Plan lies a clear vision: to ensure that Blaby District is a great place to live, work and visit.
Organisational values
The plan sets out four organisational values that will serve as guiding principles in day to day operations:
- Put the customer at the heart of everything we do
- Be innovative, adaptable and resourceful
- Understand the needs of our communities and treat everyone fairly
- Be open, honest and clearly communicate
Our strategic themes
The Blaby District Plan 2024 - 2028 outlines five strategic themes that will guide the Council's work:
- Enabling our communities and supporting our vulnerable residents
- Enhancing and maintaining our natural and built environment
- Growing and supporting our economy
- Keeping you safe and healthy
- Ambitious and well managed Council, valuing our people.
