Causeway Coast and Glens Council says it is ‘reducing debt burden on ratepayer’
Causeway Coast and Glens Council says it is ‘reducing the debt burden on the ratepayer’ and maintaining a ‘strong financial position’.
The local government authority took to social media on September 22 to say there was ‘positive news for local ratepayers following tonight’s Council Meeting’.
At the Council meeting, councillors were presented with the 2025/26 annual accounts for approval, ahead of final certification by the Northern Ireland Audit Office.
The post on Facebook said: “Once again, Council is expected to receive an unqualified audit report - meaning auditors are satisfied that the accounts are accurate and have been properly prepared.
“A strong financial position means Council can continue to focus on delivering for our communities, including significant investment in new projects, reducing the debt burden on ratepayers, protecting and improving local services and continued investment in our towns and communities.
"It’s important that Council finances remain sustainable while ensuring investment continues to deliver real benefits for residents and visitors across the area.”
