The Kentish Gazette and www.kentishgazette.co.uk is giving you the chance to quiz city council bosses on their most controversial budget for years.

Announced earlier this month, it featured a hike in parking charges across the district, the closure of museums and council offices and the demolition of the Westgate Hall in Canterbury.

The authority argues that the cuts are necessary in order to save itself £3.5 million over the next two years as its income falls.

Our in-depth reporting and analysis of the prompted a flood of letters and comments on the website.

Now the Gazette is offering readers and visitors to www.kentishgazette.co.uk an exclusive opportunity to quiz council bosses, including city council leader John Gilbey (pictured), about all aspects of the budget.

Simply think of a question you would like the city council to answer and write to us with your name and address. We will pick the ones we think are the best and submit those to the council.
