Oxfordshire County Council:
Following on from our previous invitation to participate in discussions about the Oxfordshire Fair Deal Alliance’s nine priorities, I am pleased to invite you to take part in Oxfordshire County Council’s budget consultation 2022/23.
This year, the council is proposing both investments in priority areas and savings. We are consulting people on what we know now, but as we move through the winter, the situation may change as we get to know more detail about the financial support available to the council from government.
An overview of the council’s budget proposals, including key investments linked to priorities, is contained in our news story, published on the county council’s website. Our budget consultation booklet provides background information on the council’s finances and our approach to setting the budget this year. We encourage you to read this before having your say. We also recommend your council reads our budget proposals that will be discussed by the Performance and Corporate Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee on 10 December 2021.
• To have your say on Oxfordshire County Council’s 2022/23 budget proposals, including our proposed council tax level for 2022/23 and the Oxfordshire Fair Deal Alliance’s priorities, please visit letstalk.oxfordshire.gov.uk/budgetconsultation and complete the online survey.
• All responses must be received by Wednesday 5 January 2022.
We are keen for as many people as possible to read our budget proposals and have their say. Please do share information about this consultation with residents in your local area. A small number of paper copies of the consultation booklet will soon be available in libraries. Feedback from the budget consultation will be considered by the council’s Cabinet on 18 January 2022. Oxfordshire County Council will meet to set its budget and agree a new strategic plan on 8 February 2022. This plan, including any revisions to our priorities, will be developed using feedback gathered from the workshops you were invited to and from the budget consultation.
Thank you in advance for your help. We look forward to receiving your feedback.
