Budget consultation special
edition
November 2024
Please share the information in
this eNewsletter widely within your communities.
The
county council is running a public consultation on our budget, Our
Council Plan, and how we spend taxpayers’ money in the coming
financial year 2025 to 2026.
The
views of our residents across West Sussex are vital to the
budget-setting process, ensuring we’re making the best use of our
resources and can continue to invest in and deliver services that
support our communities.
That’s
why we’re encouraging as many people as possible to take part.
Please
could you encourage your parishioners to complete the consultation via this link.
Anyone
without access to the internet can visit a library or family hub to complete the
consultation.
If you
know anyone who would like to receive a printed copy of the survey
and a freepost return envelope, please call our customer services
team on 01243 777100.
An Easy
Read survey is also available online on the consultation page via
the link above.
If you
are able to share our social media posts which are also encouraging
people to take part that would be great too:
We also
have a poster if you are able to download it and print it out to display
and an animation you are welcome to watch and
share.
The
consultation closes on Sunday 15 December and all comments will be
considered as part of the budget setting process for 2025 to
2026.
The
West Sussex County Council Cabinet is due to consider feedback from
the public consultation at a meeting in January before recommending
the Council Plan and budget to Full Council in February for a final
decision.
Read
more about our budget and finances from Council Leader Cllr Paul Marshall.
Thank
you for your help.
