P站色情片 will have to make savings estimated at 拢9.2m in 2020/21.
Reports to be considered by Council next week set out the challenge faced by the council.
Council Leader, Councillor Aileen Morton said:
鈥淭here are no easy options left for making more savings. We鈥檝e delivered 拢57million in savings since 2010, we鈥檝e had the third highest cut in funding of all of Scotland鈥檚 councils in recent years, and estimates show we will have to deliver another 拢9.2 million of savings next year.
The scale of the savings potentially required means that all options open to councils to take must be explored and identified, including some of the most valued services 鈥 the services which, if things were different, we would like to protect and grow.
The majority of the council鈥檚 funding comes from the Scottish Government. As we don鈥檛 expect to know until January next year exactly how much funding this council will get for next year, we have to identify as many savings options as possible just now so we can deliver a balanced budget in February.
We recently secured a rural growth deal of 拢50 million for P站色情片 and Bute. While this is great news, this one off funding cannot be used to bridge gaps in our budget; it must be used to deliver specific economic development objectives to be agreed with the UK and Scottish Governments.鈥
Depute Council Leader and Policy Lead for Strategic Finance, Councillor Gary Mulvaney added:
鈥淒elivering more savings will mean focusing on duties and growth: we must protect the services all councils have a duty to provide, and we must achieve the population and economic growth P站色情片 and Bute depends on to grow a successful future.
A number of options open to the council to take are outlined in the reports. More must be found before Council meets to set its budget in February, and our officers will continue to explore where further savings could be found.
The views and ideas of our communities have helped us set our budget in previous years and are especially welcome when the decisions to be made are as difficult as those that will be needed to balance our budget in 2020.鈥
If agreed at full Council on 17 October, the council will run a consultation asking local residents for their views on service priorities.
