We will do this by:

• maintaining South Somerset as a debt free local authority, with a strong financial base
• reducing administration costs through the continuing drive for greater efficiency within the council
• increasing income generation by making the best use of council finance, staff and building assets
• working with towns and parishes to find innovative ways of maintaining services under threat from cuts by the County Council or Central Government
• working with the Education Authority to provide two new primary schools in Yeovil by September 2016, and a new or improved primary school in Wincanton.
