Perth and Kinross councillors have unanimously approved £2.3 million worth of cumulative savings by axing four top jobs from the council.
The leadership structure has been whittled down from 18 to 14 as part of a radical shake-up.
The proposal - recommended for approval by chief executive Thomas Glen - was rubber-stamped by Perth and Kinross Council's (PKC) Finance and Resources Committee on Tuesday, June 20.
