Please find attached a note from Monday's well attended meeting.
This has been emailed to colleagues from Anthony Rae.
The deadline is next Wednesday 8th February budget(at)calderdale.gov.uk; the
following Monday 13th is when the Cabinet will actually make its budget recommendations.
I've already prepared a draft of our joint statement and I will circulate it to you as soon as possible for comment/approval; Then next Thursday 9th February 6 p.m. the council's Communities Scrutiny panel will be reviewing budget proposals including the Countryside Service.
That is when I will present our joint statement and I would recommend you attend if you can/want to. You often get a chance to submit your views in person.
also find attached a copy of an article that appeared in yesterday's Courier.
