Residents can expect a near five per cent rise in council tax, with £1.5 million of cuts across North Ayrshire.
A 4.84 per cent rise has been proposed by officers ahead of councillors determining the level of Council Tax for 2020/21 later this week.
Proposals would see Band A council tax would go up by £41.32 to £895.12 annually, band B rising by £48.21 to £1,044.31, C rising by £55.09 to £1,193.49, D £61.99 to £1,342.69, E £81.45 to £1,764.14, F going up by £100.73 to £2,181.86, G £121.38 to £2,629.42 and those in Band H paying an extra £151.87 to £3,289.58.
This would raise around £58,827,000 for North Ayrshire Council.
Council papers state: "Members require to approve a package of efficiencies and savings, excluding any decision taken by the Integration Joint Board in respect of social care services, totalling £1.552m for 2020/21."
