At a meeting of the Council yesterday morning [08/03/11] Members supported the budget for 2011/12.
The Council supported the recommendation that Conwy County Borough Council’s part of the Band D Council Tax for 2011/12 be £850.59.
That’s an increase of £30.43 (equivalent to 59p per week).
Council Tax at Band D in Conwy has been the lowest in North Wales for a number of years and is one of the lowest in England and Wales.
Cllr Meirion Hughes, Cabinet Member for Finance said: “Officers and Members have been preparing this budget for over 12months. It’s been a very complicated and at times difficult process but we have identified savings of almost £6million.”
“We believe this is a robust budget for 2011/12, but we will continue to face significant financial challenges over the next few years.”
