On Tuesday 11th March (7.30-9.00 pm), Mark Elliott, Councillor for Lansdown ward and Cabinet Member for Resources, will outline the Council's approved budget for the coming financial year.
He will explain how council budgets are structured in general, and how this year's careful, balanced budget, protects the most vulnerable in our communities and tries to mitigate against the huge unpredictability and uncertainty we face, while at the same time manages, despite the prevailing uncertainty, to make some important moves in meeting our manifesto commitments.
As well as understanding the specifics, this is an excellent opportunity to find out more about how local government raises and spends money, and to get answers to specific questions you may have.
Mark has a great ability to make this subject clear and engaging, so do sign up for this zoom event as soon as possible.
