Budget 2023 meeting will reconvene this afternoon

Donegal County Council’s Budget Meeting will reconvene this afternoon after it was adjourned this morning.

Members are being asked to approve expenditure of over €175 million next year, an increase of just over 8% on the 2020 figure.

On the income side almost €39 million will be raised through commercial rates and charges on new properties, with rates not increasing this year.

Just over €26 million will come from the Local Government Fund and Local Property Tax, while other grants will account for just over 55% of the council’s income.

Members have had a series of meetings with the Chief Executive and the Heaed of Finance, with Independent Councillor Nicholas Crossan saying he expects Budget 2023 to pass this afternoon……….
