Renfrewshire's budget delivers for everyone
A budget which 'delivers for everyone in Renfrewshire' and continues recovery and renewal from the impact of the pandemic has been agreed by councillors today (Thursday 3 March 2022).
The £466.3million Renfrewshire Council budget includes investment in town and village centres, enhanced community facilities and improved schools and nurseries.
Funding of £11.6million to bolster adult social care and £5million to tackle the cost of living and help those most in need was also agreed.
The financial plans will also continue the £437million capital investment programme well under way, bringing better digital connections, new transport links and transforming cultural venues.
Council Tax increase was set at 3%, alongside a £150 Scottish Government credit for households in Bands A-D and people receiving Council Tax Reduction.
