About

The Council is the ultimate decision-making body for Aberdeen City, responsible for setting the strategic direction and approving key financial and policy matters. It sets the council tax, approves the annual budget and capital programme, and oversees borrowing and investment strategies. The Council also appoints committees, including the Lord Provost and Depute Provost, and approves the Local Development Plan and the Council's Scheme of Governance. It reviews polling districts, considers reports on standards and conduct, and approves schemes for community councils. Additionally, it analyses population needs, endorses improvement plans, and makes decisions on service provision, including establishing or decommissioning Arm's Length External Organisations (ALEOs).
