The purpose of the report is to present the
proposed 2025/26 Cabinet Revenue Budget for approval. The report
outlines the Council’s financial outlook and significant
challenges across the medium term period 2025/26 to 2026/27. The
report highlights the overarching priorities and desired outcomes
upon which the Cabinet has based its budget proposals, and which
form the basis of our Borough Plan and updated Council Plan
included elsewhere on this agenda. We continue to shape our budget
within an incredibly uncertain, volatile and complex environment
which includes pressures across public services as well as the
increasing need within our communities.
