Cornwall Council has agreed a set of priorities for the years 2026 to 2030. They are designed to tackle Cornwall’s biggest challenges and unlock its potential for the benefit of all who live and work here.
The priorities – shaped by what residents have said matters most – are:
Strong, safe, vibrant communities, with more decent and affordable homes
A clean, green Cornwall, with healthy rivers and seas
A resilient economy creating good growth and jobs
A caring place for families, where children build a bright future
Supporting people to live healthy and dignified lives
Connected, safe, reliable roads and transport
The Council Priorities Plan is a high-level document that explains:
What the Council’s priorities are and what they mean in practice for residents and businesses
How they will be achieved and how success will be measured.
