In 2011 Wolverhampton City Council is facing a budget black hole of about £7.9 million — despite already making colossal savings. The finance department has started to draw up plans to cut £3.9m even before the government's comprehensive spending review is revealed on October 20. Advertising and publicity budgets will be reduced by £26,000 per year. The controversial changes already implemented have seen the city's tips close two days a week, while the price of hot food for the elderly and disabled has nearly doubled.
