Coventry City Council Budget Consultation 2026/27
We are running our annual budget consultation which starts today, and your feedback can really help shape the way we plan our finances and how we target services for 2026-2027.
In this year’s annual budget consultation there are no cuts proposed to local services, in fact we have the potential for additional investment.
So that’s why, we would love to know your views on how we can deliver the priorities that the public have told us about.
For the first time in about 15 years, the Council anticipates being able to meet its legal duty of setting a balanced budget for 2026/27 without requiring significant service reductions, thanks to expected improvements from the Government's Fair Funding reform.
The Pre-Budget Report outlines potential themes for investment based on public engagement and council performance data. These include:
Keeping people safe – tackling crime, improving cleanliness and city centre improvements
Anti-social behaviour – including fly tipping
Local environments – particularly in deprived neighbourhoods
Protecting vulnerable people – tackling child poverty
Good jobs, investment and prosperity – addressing youth unemployment and education achievement
Helping people to manage – support with bills and energy costs
Roads and pavements – improving condition and safety
The deadline for responses is Wednesday 28 January 2026.
