The consultation is open for your views.
We are continuing to face the challenge of significant spending demands and cost increases, largely in adult and children’s social care, and home-to-school transport. We need to manage this within the funding available, which mainly comes from Council Tax and Government grants. This means that we need to make tough choices about our priorities for the future.
As we plan our spending for the year ahead, we'd like to hear the views of our residents, businesses and community groups on:
• our Council Tax proposals for 2025-26,
• how comfortable you would be with reductions in spending across our different service areas, and
• your suggestions for how to make further savings and increase income.
