Partnership Working
While Dover District Council is committed to continually
improving all its services, there are key areas of particular
importance we need to focus on for the district. These are our
priorities: where we want to deliver the most significant
improvements, so the people of the Dover District can see and feel
a significant difference in the quality of their lives.
What are the priorities for the Dover District?
Our Vision: A future of strong economic
growth within safe and sustainable communities
Our priorities are set out on
our ambitious, outward focused Corporate
Plan 2008-2020, titled: World Class District,
World Class Heritage, World Class Port and looks at
realising the themes of:
- A World-Class Dover
- World-Class Heritage and Leisure
- World-Class Economy and Environment
- World-Class Communities
Like many other organisations and businesses
Dover District Council is feeling the full impact of the economic
downturn and uncertainty. Our Interim
Corporate Plan 2010-2013 ensures we take
steps and put measures in place to support our communities and
ensure Dover District is well placed to prepare for recovery,
whilst moving steadily towards our longer term ambitions for the
District.
Our vision and priorities remain the same over
the longer-term, however between 2010 and 2013, in working
towards the vision, the Council will concentrate on the areas
of:
- Regeneration,
- Value for Money Services and
- Enabling Others through Partnerships.
For more information, please view our
Corporate Plan 2008- 2020 and Interim Corporate Plan 2010 –
2013.
Regeneration is a key priority for the
district to help achieve these themes.
We are committed to working closely with
partners to regenerate the district in a sustainable way that gives
our residents a world-class future. Releasing the potential of the
district requires innovative service delivery and a commitment to
work in partnership to realise greater benefits than we could
achieve ourselves.
The history of partnership within Dover District is extensive
and we have also been working for many years with our neighbouring
districts to realise the potential of East Kent.
Each district has a role to play in ensuring East Kent is a
prosperous and cohesive area, one in which residents and employers
have pride in and one which offers a combined and enhanced offer to
visitors too.
We work with a number of different partners and partnerships
