Cardiff Council is facing a budget gap of £32.4m in 2019/20
£218m in savings have already been found over the past ten years
Proposals recommend a council tax rise of 4.9% (£1.09 a week on a Band D property)
A 4.9% Council Tax rise will bring in £6.7m to set against the budget gap of £32.4m
The rest of the gap will be bridged by finding savings of £19m
Using £2.75m of council reserves
Capping schools’ budget growth by £3.5m
Schools will, however, receive £10.4m more than last year – a 4.5% increase
Social Services will receive £5m extra to help cope with increasing demand
£1m extra will go to repairing highways this year on top of already planned spending
£750,000 will be spent on protecting essential, non-profitable, bus routes in the city
£312,000 for neighbourhood deep cleans and street ‘blitzes’
£300,000 extra will go to help address future homelessness pressures
£180,000 will be spent on piloting new street-cleansing technology
£100,000 extra will go on delivering active travel plans for schools
£50,000 will go to help develop the Love Where You Live campaign and encourage more volunteers
£50,000 to improve facilities in response to the Public Toilet Strategy
