Minutes:

Councillor Ian Wingfield, deputy leader and cabinet member for communities, employment and business, introduced the consultation.

 

The council’s budget was facing future cuts. Residents were invited during the break to take part in this year’s budget consultation exercise. This involved a red and green cheques interactive session that enabled residents to show which areas of council spending they thought should be reduced and which areas should be protected in the future.
