Description

Manchester City Council unveils a new public consultation, seeking residents input on investing in local services as their financial situation improves. This shift marks a departure from years of austerity, with the government introducing fairer funding for councils. The council anticipates more funding, allowing investments in street cleaning, youth services, and library hours. A council tax increase of 4.99% is proposed, with a 2.99% general increase and 2% for adult social care. The consultation is open until January 28, 2026, with online participation at manchester.gov.uk/budget or paper copies at city libraries.
