Mar 6 2009 by Lois York, Chester Chronicle
THE Cheshire Police budget has been set at £172,898,000, an increase in funding of 2.9%, meaning an increase in council tax on a Band D household of just over 9p per week or 3.65%.
Police Authority chairman Peter Nurse said: “Our priorities this year are to continue to protect the people of Cheshire and see a further reduction in crime and fear of crime.
“The budget will enable the constabulary’s performance to continue to improve and is critical in helping the new chief constable, David Whatton.”
