The work of Barkly Regional Council is carried out in a cross-cultural atmosphere that can represent a major challenge to achieve a shared and strategic vision. Acceptance and achievement of this vision is gradually occurring, especially on remote communities where it is imperative that the needs of those communities and residents are correctly identified and met. The large geographical size of the Council footprint, differing priorities of the various stakeholders, the tyranny of distance and difficulties in retaining staff have also contributed to operational and strategic challenges. Council set out in its 2018-2019 Regional Plan a chart of non-financial objectives and measures linked to Councils Strategic Plan. In order to measure progress across all goals, outcomes and measures, Barkly Regional Council has used a ratings system that quickly shows progress across our non-financial commitments in 2018-2019.
