Council Tax Financial Information

Medium Term Financial Strategy 2025/26 - 2027/28

The Medium Term Financial Strategy (MTFS) sets out our approach to medium term financial planning and supports the delivery of the objectives and programmes set out in the Council Plan. It is designed to help provide a stable financial base from which to deliver our priorities, to move towards a more strategic longer term planning approach and to set a sound financial planning framework for Solihull Council.

The refreshed MTFS is supported by the Revenue Budget, which includes details of the budget for 2025/26, together with the Corporate Capital Strategy and the Treasury Management Strategy. 

The Corporate Capital Strategy incorporates our strategy on the flexible use of capital receipts, which sets out how Solihull Council could use any capital receipts from the sale of property, plant or equipment assets to fund the costs of service reform.
