The council's stated direction
Liverpool's direction is set out in its Community Strategic Plan 2025–2035, a four-year Delivery Program 2025–2029 and annual Operational Plans (adopted 18 June 2025 for 2025–26), against a backdrop of fast population growth and the new Western Sydney International Airport opening within the LGA in late 2026.
The council delivers roads, waste, libraries, parks, planning and community services across established suburbs near Liverpool CBD and fast-growing greenfield areas in the south and west. Its Delivery Program is the elected council's statement of commitment for its term, alongside a Long-Term Financial Plan and capital works program.
The Delivery Program is backed by a $208.3 million capital works program for 2025–26 (per the council's Q3 budget review), covering roads, drainage, parks and community facilities, alongside major precinct projects such as Liverpool Civic Place.
