Oakham Town Council Third Budget Proposal 2013 2014 Proposing 2.54% or 3.63% Council Tax Increase
The first draft indicated a cut, second an increase and bow the third a larger increase.
Every year this disgraceful council costs more and residents see less in return for their money.
£13,200 for hanging baskets so Cllr Maureen Dodds Oakham in Bloom can get a pat on the back
and a mention at Rutland County Council by Cllr Edward Baines is a disgrace.
£2,000 is to be set aside for another freedom of entry, I like description possible the last waste of money
to give the Freedom to a Army regiment on the day the government announced the regiment was on the move and the subsequent money wasted on buying a display cabinet for the sword. It time the Town Council
stopped wasting public money on civic events that so few are actually interested in.
£8000 to install an electricity supply in the shelter in Cutts Close so Cllr Lucas and Haworth can make
tea.
Then the council rather jokingly mentions a matter of prudence it will cancel its a service contract for its little used laptop saving the tax payer £150
