At least HDC finally admits why the Council is in a spending crisis

In the latest District Wide, HDC has gotten around to explain why it is in such a financial mess.

"For many years we have used our capital an revenue reserves to keep the Council tax level down". There we have it. Finally HDC has admitted what I've been banging on about for ages. HDC has spent the reserves and has to cut, raise charges and raise Council Tax.

Why couldn't this council inform the people of Huntingdonshire this had been going on way before this week?
