Financial sustainability ‘remains a significant corporate risk' at Cheshire East Council, according to an update on its improvement and transformation delivery plan next week.
A progress report on the plan, which will be presented to members of the corporate overview and scrutiny committee on Monday, warned ‘robust and deliverable proposals' were still needed to ‘manage growth pressures' and to tackle the local authority's £15m funding gap, as the council looks to escape from its reliance on exceptional financial support (EFS).
