Our plan to protect, promote and enhance The Cotswolds

  • Tweet

From the £150 million investment in the local road network, the ‘free-after-three’ parking initiative across the Cotswolds to keeping council tax amongst the lowest of any Shire district in England, local Conservatives are working hard to ensure that everyone living here gets the very best value from their public services.

Cotswold District Council has been independently ranked as the most efficient Shire District Council in the country. Low council tax, outstanding recycling rates and low cost per head to council tax payers have all made the local authority one of the best performing councils in the UK. Conservative Council leader Tony Berry said, “Conservatives are focussed on delivering good quality public services. There are some parties who are more interested in playing party politics than in making sure the public get good value for money.

“We will always put people before politics. We want to build on our achievements by improving broadband and mobile coverage across the district, supporting our iconic market towns by keeping business rates low and protecting our unique countryside whilst helping to deliver affordable homes for all.

Vote Conservative on 2nd May for low council tax, excellent public services and a council that will protect, promote and enhance The Cotswolds.
