Further cuts expected as council prepares budget

COUNCILLORS are set to agree Solihull's spending plans for the year ahead at the annual budget meeting next Wednesday (March 1).
With a continuing squeeze on public spending, the council is expected to slash budgets across the board - part of a drive to save in the region of £8.3billion over the course of the next three years.
There will also be increases in council tax bills as the local authority grapples with rising costs, particularly in relation to adult social care.
A full report on the budget will be available on the site next week.
