Budget for council services 2026/27

One of the key ways we can shape the budget for 2026/27 is by listening carefully to the people who use and pay for our services — our residents and local businesses.

Our budget consultation ran from 3 November to 28 November 2025. The results of this consultation will be considered by Cabinet ahead of their meeting in February 2026, when they will make budget recommendations to Council.

The Council's Medium Term Financial Strategy 2026-2029 and Revenue & Capital Budget 2026-2027 was approved by Cabinet on 25 February and by Full Council on 4 March.
