@Rimarti72 @andy_s_64 Thank you. :) Can't comment on an individual property but a Band C would have been roughly £35 for year or < £3/month 6:51 AM Feb 24th via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to Rimarti72
@dpashley @cooljool80 You're right. The 3.5% figure was announced months before the referendum was set. 6:46 AM Feb 24th via Tweetbot for iOS in reply to dpashley
The council meeting is over and #bhbudget is passed and set for the year. 1:39 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
Council tax is frozen in B&H to the great regret (and disagreement) of the Green administration. But rest of budget (99.4%) is proudly Green 1:36 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
Greens have voted FOR the final amended budget, as have other parties, so it is carried 1:34 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
robs_on_green Amended Green budget being put to the vote of all councillors. This will be a recorded vote to see how everyone votes. 1:32 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck Retweeted by BHBudget
jasonkitcat So Tories & Labour just voted to impose tax freeze on our city, reducing our financial base permanently & £3.6m more cuts next yr #bhbudget 1:28 PM Feb 23rd via Twitterrific Retweeted by BHBudget and 24 others
Councillors given 5 minutes to read through the text of the amended budget. 1:29 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
So Labour amendment carried. The Green budget is amended to include a Council Tax freeze and £3.6m+ financial black hole for next year 1:28 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
Labour amendment (freeze council tax) put to vote. Conservatives & Labour voting together on this Tory policy. Amendment will be carried. 1:26 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
So Labour can now state that it did not vote for any Tory amendments. Useful for spin. 1:25 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
Final Tory amendment (mayor's number plate) being voted. No surprise that Labour & Green are against amendment so number plate will be sold. 1:24 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
Tory amendment 5 (Lanes car park fees) being voted. Will fall. 1:22 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
Tory amendment 4 (close Brightstart Nursery) being voted. Again, it will fall as, predictably, only Tories in favour 1:21 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
So after Labour's vaunted loo saving campaign, Labour has voted against amendment on the topic. 1:20 PM Feb 23rd via TweetDeck
