Leeds City Council’s annual budget proposals have been released, ahead of “another difficult 12 months”, according to the authority’s leader.
The plans confirm that, although the budget is set to increase by £86.7m on last year, around £16.5m of cuts still needed to be made to services due to spiraling costs.
According to latest proposals, the authority will have to shed 19 full time equivalent job posts, but will create 211 new FTE jobs.
