2011 Lib Dem Budget Proposal for North Herts District Council

Liberal Democrats have proposed changes to the Tory-run council's budget to save services for young people, freeze increases in residents parking costs and protect both public toilets and recycling facilities. Liberal Democrat leader Steve Jarvis said, "The proposed budget identifies savings of £750,000 in the Council's costs and proposes a zero rise in Council Tax, both of which we have long argued are possible. North Herts has been an expensive Council for too long, but now the Coalition Government has forced the local Conservatives to make changes.
