MAN 5401: Rural Councils Transformation Program Case Study

This document presents a business case report for a Rural Councils Transformation Program, focusing on the town of Greyville and its socio-economic challenges. The project aims to secure funding from the Lee Harrison Trust (LHT) to improve the lives of residents in the older, poorer areas of Greyville by addressing issues such as low income, unemployment, and health problems. The report outlines the problem identification, including the background, evidence, and timing considerations, and proposes a strategic project plan involving community engagement and addressing the concerns of local campaigners. It details the recommended solution, which involves securing funds from LHT and exploring alternative funding sources, along with considerations for regulation, monitoring, and potential implications of a 'business as usual' approach. The project emphasizes strategic planning, community involvement, and sustainable development to enhance the overall well-being of Greyville's residents.
