The West Suffolk Council meeting on Tuesday 24 February 2026 focused heavily on the setting of the budget and Council Tax for the upcoming financial year, alongside approving key financial strategies and policies. Significant decisions included the approval of a 2.96% increase in Council Tax for an average Band D property, the adoption of the Wickhambrook Neighbourhood Plan, and proposed changes to the Council's Constitution.

Budget and Council Tax Setting 2026 to 2027 and Medium Term Financial Strategy 2026 to 2030

The Council approved the budget and Council Tax for 2026 to 2027, setting the Council Tax for an average Band D property at £209.70. This represents an increase of £6.03 per year, or 2.96%, which is within the government's referendum limits. The decision was made following extensive debate and consideration of the Medium Term Financial Strategy (MTFS) for 2026 to 2030. The budget aims to balance the council's finances for the next two years, investing in strategic priorities such as environmental resilience, sustainable growth, and community support. Key investments include funding for the Better Recycling initiative, improvements to leisure facilities, and support for affordable housing. The council also reaffirmed its commitment to a 100% discount on Council Tax for eligible low-income residents for one year only, and confirmed changes to Long-Term Empty Property Premiums and Second Homes policies.

Review of the political balance and appointment to committees 2025 to 2026

Following the formation of the Reform UK – West Suffolk political group and a subsequent resignation from the Independents group, the Council reviewed its political balance and committee allocations. The report confirmed that despite these changes, the overall political balance of the committees remained unchanged. The allocation of seats and substitutes on committees was approved, with delegated authority given to Group Leaders to nominate members.

Calendar of meetings 2026 to 2027

The Council adopted the proposed calendar of meetings for the municipal year 2026 to 2027. The calendar has been drafted to avoid significant national events that might impact member attendance and includes provision for reserve meetings for Council and Cabinet. The dates may be subject to change due to ongoing local government reorganisation plans.

Wickhambrook Neighbourhood Plan: referendum and decision to 'make' (adopt) as a West Suffolk Development Plan document

The Council unanimously adopted the Wickhambrook Neighbourhood Plan, making it part of the statutory development plan for West Suffolk. This plan will now be a material consideration for all future planning applications within the Wickhambrook Neighbourhood Area. Delegated authority was given to the Service Manager (Strategic Planning) to make minor non-material consequential changes to the plan as necessary.

Proposed changes to the Constitution

The Council approved a number of changes to its Constitution. These amendments primarily affect Part 4a of the Council Procedure Rules, concerning motions that require written notice, and rules regarding how members of the public can register to speak at meetings. These changes were effective immediately and aimed to streamline procedures and enhance public engagement.

Community Governance Review

The Council agreed to commence a district-wide Community Governance Review (CGR) and approved its Terms of Reference. A Community Governance Review Task and Finish Group was established to oversee the process, with Group Leaders requested to nominate members for appointment. This review aims to ensure that parish and town councils provide cohesive communities, improve engagement, and enhance the delivery of local services.

Change of polling place

The Council unanimously agreed to designate Bradfield St Clare Village Hall as the polling place for polling district B-BSC Bradfield St Clare. This decision followed improvements made to the village hall, making it accessible for electors with disabilities, and reinstating it as the polling place after a previous assessment deemed it unsuitable.

Appointment of Vice Chair of the Performance and Audit Scrutiny Committee 2025 to 2026

Councillor Janne Jarvis was unanimously elected as the Vice Chair of the Performance and Audit Scrutiny Committee for the remainder of the 2025 to 2026 municipal year. This appointment was necessary due to Councillor Frank Stennett stepping down from the committee upon his appointment to the Cabinet.

Motions on notice

Two motions were debated and voted upon:

• Untitled Motion (COU/WS/25/035): This motion, which committed the Council to reaffirming the value of every member of the community and fostering good relations, was passed with 20 votes in favour, 16 against, and 11 abstentions. An amendment to explicitly name and reject divisive rhetoric threatening Jewish and other minority communities was defeated.
• Reinstatement of a recycling centre in Newmarket (COU/WS/25/036): This motion, calling on Suffolk County Council to work constructively towards reinstating a recycling facility in Newmarket, was passed with 30 votes in favour, 10 against, and 7 abstentions. The motion declared the absence of a Household Waste Recycling Centre in Newmarket a failure by Suffolk County Council to provide a 'reasonably accessible' facility.

Leader's Statement

Councillor Cliff Waterman, Leader of the Council, presented his statement, highlighting key developments and activities. He emphasised the importance of the budget setting process, thanked those involved in its preparation, and detailed investments in community support, including the Thriving Communities Fund and Locality Budget grants.
