Asset Management Plan
Why have an Asset Management Plan?
Asset management planning is the systematic preparation of an overall plan to optimise the use of assets in terms of service benefits and financial return in order to meet corporate objectives.
One of the principal aims of an Asset Management Plan is to ensure that the opportunity cost of having resources tied up in land and buildings is kept to a minimum and that expenditure (whether it be capital or revenue) is used effectively and efficiently to provide value-for-money. The land and property assets, which a local authority holds, are there to support the business of the local authority, that is, to provide services. The unlikely exception to that main rationale is where land and buildings are used for investment purposes, in which case the emphasis instead is to be on ensuring that the resource provides a maximum financial return.
The Council's Asset Management Plan was agreed by ODPM in 2003 as being fit for purpose. Further work on performance indicators will be undertaken during 2004.
Please read the Council's Asset Management Plan (below) and if you have any questions contact Peter Latham, Director of Services.
