Plans to turn Shrewsbury's Pride Hill shopping centre into a new council office and leisure venue are being debated by councillors on Thursday.

If the move goes ahead, Shropshire Council would move to the new site and sell its Shirehall headquarters in the town.

Councillors are being asked to approve work on the design and budget, with a final decision set for later this year.

Shelved plans for a hydro-electricity scheme at Shrewsbury weir have been resurrected.

The town council has committed funds in its 2021-22 budget to look again at the viability of the project, which was first raised more than 10 years ago.

Plans were abandoned when changes to feed-in tariffs – money paid for electricity supplied to the National Grid – rendered it non-viable.

The town council has allocated about £30,000 in its budget towards a feasibility study, which it is hoping Shropshire Council will match.

A report from 2015 said tenders received when the scheme was first put the total cost of the project at around £1.5 to £2m.

Shrewsbury Town Council leader Alan Mosley said while the scheme would not "change the world" it would generate enough electricity to power the equivalent of about 400 homes every year and would demonstrate both the councils' commitment to tackling the climate crisis and serve as an educational tool for local school children to learn about hydro power.

He added: "The climate emergency makes it vital that we move to much more green energy and the hydro scheme at the weir will make a good local contribution to our objectives."

The seizure was described as one of the biggest in recent years by law enforcement in NI.

Birmingham families are to pay up to £166 extra per year after councillors agreed a council tax rise of 4.99%.

Council leader Ian Ward (pictured) defended the Labour leadership’s record on finances amid more than £730m in cuts since 2010.

Outlining achievements against the spectre of the pandemic, he said the authority had helped hundreds of rough sleepers, provided free school meal vouchers for children and delivered food packages and more.

Mr Ward said the government’s "failure to act" over a social care funding crisis had meant the council had been forced to put council tax up.

The Conservative group said the leadership’s financial plan for 2021 to 2025 showed there was a projected overspend of £80.5m in four years’ time.

Conservative group leader Robert Alden said: "The council should not stand idly by when it has been given the ammunition by the government to be able to help those in need in our city."

Liberal Democrat group leader Jon Hunt said the leadership’s plans to increase funding for fly-tipping and climate change were "steps in the right direction", but he said there had been "no public consultation about this budget".

The council’s Green councillor Julien Pritchard said the budget was “insufficient” on tackling the climate emergency despite promises around the sustainability team.
