Lib Dems oppose "Damaging" County Council budget
The Liberal Democrats on Surrey County Council have voted against the Tory administration's budget for 2010/11 at County Hall. County Cllr Colin Taylor said: "We supported limiting the Council Tax increase to 2.5% as proposed. Many Surrey residents are struggling to pay their bills during the economic downturn, so the Council Tax needs to be set as low as possible whilst allowing for adequate funding for services. However we opposed the contents of the Conservatives' budget, as it does the opposite of what Surrey residents want."
