Council strategies and plans

Council Plan 2026-28 and Delivery Plan 2026-28

On 14 July 2026, Watford Borough Council adopted the new Council Plan 2026-28 and Delivery Plan 2026-28

Our new Council Plan sets out our aspirations for both Watford Borough Council and the town it serves. It is forward-looking, high level and outward facing, with an emphasis on outcome focused commitments. The plan demonstrates our role as leader of place and how we will continue to build on our strategic and operational excellence.

Our Council Plan themes are:

  • A Healthy and Happy Town
  • A Safe and Clean Town
  • Caring for Everyone
  • A Greener Town
  • A Thriving Local Economy

Council Plan 2026-28

Our Delivery Plan 2026-28 sets out how the council will focus our work to bring the Council Plan to life, making sure we deliver what we said we would over the next 24 months. Under each theme and commitment, we set out our key priority areas of actions, which we are focused on achieving by 2028. The Delivery Plan will be monitored and a report on progress will be reported to Cabinet quarterly, and, annually, we will prepare a report for residents, businesses and partners.
