North Warwickshire Borough Council has confirmed a freeze on its share of council tax for the 2026-27 financial year, marking only the third instance in its 52-year history. The council's budget includes a £2m fund for community facilities and transformation projects, £10,000 for enabling parish councils to fly the national flag, and £100,000 for flood prevention initiatives.

There is also a £700,000 allocation for reducing homelessness. The budget commits £27m to rebuild a leisure center in Atherstone, £300,000 for three new pump tracks, and £250,000 for street cleaning in local towns and villages.
