Scottish Borders Budget Challenge

Closed 31 Jan 2021

Opened 6 Nov 2020

Overview

The annual Scottish Borders Council budget consultation is now open. This is your chance to play #yourpart and shape the Council’s financial plan for next year as well as its future priorities.

This year the consultation, which is open for 12 weeks, focuses on some high-level issues facing the Council and the wider area. Borderers are being asked to allocate a limited number of points across these to provide insight on local priorities.

The feedback will be used as the Council develops its 2021/22 financial plan and also future priorities as part of a review and update of the Council’s Corporate Plan.
