The Coronavirus Pandemic has had a tragic impact on the lives of so many. From a Local Authority perspective, there is now a huge funding gap. Cheshire East Cabinet report paper (9th June 2020, Page 39, item 6, 8.2)states that the Council has lost out on money from council tax; business rates, parking income and leisure/culture fees, leaving the budget short of £60m.
In April, the Government announced that Local Authorities would
receive two tranches of funds to fill this void but so far only
£19.69m of the promised amount has been received by Cheshire
East Council.
