Gas safety at Bristol council homes plunged into uncertainty (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bristol City Council does not know which of its 28,000 homes have passed gas safety tests – because it did not keep the records, a damning report says. It also lost track of which of its council housing stock, home to about 64,000 residents, are supplied by gas in the first place. The problems piled up when the authority introduced a new housing IT software system about a year ago, and data for gas boiler servicing and smoke and carbon monoxide alarm tests did not match what staff said they had
Bristol planners blasted for errors after bungled bungalow report (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Residents and councillors lambasted Bristol City Council’s own planning officers for putting the wrong height of a new bungalow in a report asking to approve the development despite concerns of overshadowing neighbours’ gardens. The inaccuracies to the planning committee repeatedly stated a side wall of the proposed property, replacing an existing garage, would be 2.7m tall, but that failed to take in a parapet on top of that, bringing the total to 3.3m – more than double the current 1.5m bounda
New parking charges across South Gloucestershire fail to make money (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The controversial introduction of car park charges in South Gloucestershire last year to plug a funding gap failed to make the council any profit, a report reveals. Parking services lost almost £700,000, even though the new pay-and-display income in 22 of the authority’s car parks totalled £816,000 from May 2025 to the end of April this year. South Gloucestershire Council says the department has a long-standing deficit and that, now the implementation costs have been met by installing pay machin

Read excerpt
The final cost to council taxpayers of the collapse of Bristol Energy has been revealed as £39.3million. Liquidators spent the last five years winding up the former city council-owned company, collecting money it was owed and paying off debts. Now that process has been completed and the firm formally dissolved following one of the most disastrous ventures in Bristol City Council history. As BristolLive reported back in 2021, the total cost of the doomed business for the local authority would end
Pero's Bridge emergency repairs approved but there's no extra money (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Emergency repairs to Pero’s Bridge have been approved by Bristol City Council. But there is no more money for the urgent works than previously agreed for a major maintenance programme to keep it operating, so any extra funding needed would have to be found from somewhere. The bridge on the Floating Harbour, between Queen Square and Millennium Square, failed a stress test lift in August, leaving the middle section broken and jammed at an awkward angle. Last March the harbour committee voted to sp
