We spend more than £1.1 billion a year on services which touch the lives of every Hertfordshire resident, business and community. We are inviting you to have your say on how we should spend this money over the coming financial year.
Your feedback will help us set a balanced budget as we continue to provide much needed services and take steps to reduce costs and raise more income.

These services are paid for through your Council Tax and other sources of income such as grants from central government and the council’s commercial income. The budget will fund essential services that our residents rely on, including:
- Helping 30,000 adults live well for longer
- Ensuring every child thrives through high-quality care and education
- Supporting residents during challenging financial times
- Responding to emergencies and keeping our communities safe
- Maintaining roads, cycleways, and pavements to keep everyone moving
However, these examples are just a snapshot of some of the 500 services we provide to our 1.2 million residents, as we strive to make Hertfordshire a great place for you to live and work, where everyone feels welcome. Don’t miss out on your chance to have your say on our proposed spending.
