An amendment was moved by Councillor Adams and seconded by Councillor Elliott on the following terms:

 

That the Council has the following objections and proposals to the estimates submitted by Cabinet, and it requires the Cabinet to reconsider those estimates in the light of these objections and proposals, and report back to Council within five working days after the day of this meeting.

 

	Revenue Budget
1.	Remove £110,000 from the Civic Centre Window Replacement in the Capital Programme, leaving £90,000 for windows which need to be repaired immediately. This would result in a revenue saving equivalent to the costs of borrowing of £10,500 per year.	(£10,500)
2.	Revert to Diesel rather than the significantly more expensive HVO as a fuel source for the Fleet Vehicles providing savings.	(£130,000)
3.	Deletion of two portfolios and resulting Cabinet Members resulting in savings in members allowances.	(£16,600)
4.	Cease printing of Contacts magazine with online distribution only.	(£45,000)
	n.b. financing of window replacement in the current capital programme and purchase of new fleet vehicles would be funded by Prudential Borrowing.
5	Purchase two new Street Sweepers at a cost of £95,000 each, this would result in an increase in the revenue budget equivalent to the cost of borrowing of £15,000 for each sweeper.	£30,000
6	The addition of two new drivers.	£76,000
7	Creation of a Community Orchard Grant Scheme, for community groups to access, for the planting and maintenance of orchards across the Borough.	£7,000
8	Reduce the Proposed Council Tax increase by 1% to 1.98%	£71,500
9	Provision of additional efficiency savings	£17,600

 

 

Note:

 

The Local Government Act 2003 requires that the Council’s Chief Financial Officer, in the case of Gedling that is the Head of Finance & ICT and S151 Officer, provide advice to the Council on the adequacy of financial reserves, and the robustness of the estimates.  These comments can be found below:

THE ROBUSTNESS OF THE ESTIMATES AND THE ADEQUACY OF THE GENERAL FUND BALANCES

 

The annual budget and the medium-term plan are based on a range of assumptions, detailed to Cabinet on 21 February, and these have enabled estimates of current and future spending to be modelled.  The Medium-Term Financial Plan (MTFP) is presented against the backdrop of major and unprecedented uncertainty, primarily due to the continuing deferral of local government finance reforms inflationary increases, significant increase in demand for services, post-Brexit supply and labour shortages.  The Council has an established process for assessing the financial risk factors inherent in any business activity, and the financial risk register recognises the increasing risks to financial sustainability in the medium term arising from the increased costs and uncertain funding levels.

 

The Council has a strong track record of meeting demands within the approved budget, together with a good reputation for the robustness of its financial planning, which will continue, however, it is important to note the structural deficit that remains within the MTFP which will require the development of further plans for budget efficiencies/savings and it should be expected that there will need to be some contraction of service delivery/performance if efficiency plans do not proceed in line with expectations.

 

The annual budget for 2024/25 and the subsequent years of the MTFP leave the Council with a level of balances broadly in line with the minimum required from 2026/27 onwards. Whilst existing management approaches should enable the Council to deliver the efficiency required in the medium to long term, further changes to the way that services are delivered will be required if the Council is to fully achieve its ambitions and achieve a sustainable financial position.

 

The Council will continue to implement the approved efficiency plans and to develop new budget reduction proposals in order to balance the MTFP which, if implemented, will mean that the financial outlook remains fair, and that the 2024/25 estimates, and beyond, are robust. Members are reminded that risk levels in the MTFP are increasing as a result of ongoing uncertainties surrounding the local government finance settlement and in the absence of funding increases, from 2026/27 additional budget reductions will be required and whilst some have been identified they are not currently backed by an agreed action plan.  Despite this, risks are currently still at acceptable levels as there is a sufficient lead in time for developing detailed plans in the coming year.

 

An assessment of reserves and balances has been carried out and I am satisfied that the financial position as presented is robust, and that reserves and balances are adequate in the short to medium term.  However, pressures on both capital and revenue budgets are substantial and the MTFP shows continued reliance on the use of General Fund balances to support expenditure levels, as reported to Cabinet on 21 February 2024.

 

The Council has in the past successfully managed such pressures, and therefore I consider that, given the information available at the time, the level of general reserves are adequate for the purpose of setting the 2024/25 Council Tax.

 

Councillor Wilkinson, seconded by Councillor David Ellis, proposed a motion to briefly adjourn the meeting to allow members to consider the amendment put before them.

 

The motion was supported, and the Mayor declared it carried.

 

The meeting adjourned at 6:33pm.

 

The meeting resumed at 6:45pm.

 

Following debate, in accordance with standing orders the amendment was put to a named vote.

 

The Mayor declared the amendment not carried.

 

An amendment was moved by Councillor Ellwood and seconded by Councillor Towsey-Hinton on the following terms:

That the Council has the following objections and proposals to the estimates submitted by Cabinet, and it requires the Cabinet to reconsider those estimates in the light of these objections and proposals, and report back to Council within five working days after the day of this meeting.

 

 

	General Fund Revenue Budget
1	To expand the eligibility for one free bulky waste collection per annum from the existing scheme, which is available to all residents, over the age of 65, to include one free collection per household with an adult aged 18 to 64 with a physical or mental disability as defined under the Equality Act 2010, subject to the availability of collection slots.	£25,000
2	Discontinue the Borough-wide printing and distribution of the hard copy version of the Contacts Magazine (transfer to digital distribution) – continue to print and distribute c. 2,000 copies of the magazine to sheltered accommodation or posted on request.	-£25,000

	Revenue Impact of Borrowing on the Capital Programme
1	Resurface the car park at the Colwick Rectory Road Recreation Ground at a cost of c£80,000, this would create a revenue cost of borrowing of £9,500 per year.	£9,500
2	To reduce the Capital Project for Civic Centre Window Replacement by £80,000 (currently £200,000 this would retain an amount sufficient to repair broken windows that are identified and in immediate need of replacement), this would create a revenue savings equal to the costs of borrowing of £9,500 per year.
