Middlesbrough Mayor Chris Cooke says the Council is taking steps towards financial sustainability as budget proposals for 2025/26 are published.
Approximately £7m of savings are required next year, rising to £8.7m in 2026/27.
Many of the savings proposals build on the work done to transform the way social care is delivered, continuing the Council’s focus on its highest spending areas.
The budget would see the first investment in activities including street cleaning and grass cutting for over ten years.
A full media release is attached, including links to the full report and details of the proposals.
