East Cambridgeshire residents are likely to face steep Council Tax rises and their beautiful rural district become a building site, if the district council is absorbed into a new Greater Cambridge unitary authority, according to its leader.
East Cambridgeshire District Council has launched a new consultation to identify what issues local people are facing, what support they may need, and how the council can best engage with them.
Initial findings from a county-wide public engagement survey into the shake-up of local government show 70% of people are concerned that some areas might be overlooked if councils are reorganised.
