Have your say on £18m worth of proposed cuts over next two years
Hounslow Council have launched their Budget consulation asking residents to have their say on £18m worth of proposed cuts.
The savings the Council are expecting to have to make are:
• 2011/12 £18,000,000
• 2012/13 £18,000,000
• 2013/14 £12,000,000
• 2014/15 £12,000,000
This means that losing 26 per cent (£60m) of their budget over the next four years.
The Council are consulting all those affected in a variety of ways including an online consultation
Councillors then agree the final budget at the Borough Council Meeting in March.
Proposals
Read the proposals being made so far. The list contains a greater package than the £18 million needed because:
• not all of the options will be full year savings
• further investigation might show that the maximum savings are not possible
• members need to be able to exercise political choice.
Have your say
• Fill in the online budget consultation
• Email budgetconsultation@hounslow.gov.uk
• Return the consultation document being sent out to every household in the borough
