Warrington Borough Council is to dip into its cash reserves to fund a new investment - but hasn't revealed what it is yet.
The council has found it has more money than it expected in its general reserve funds and already has £100,000 of it available for use during the next year.
That will be used to fund immediate investments, which the members of the new executive board want to make.
Speaking at a meeting of the executive board on Monday, Warrington Borough Council leader Ian Marks said: "We hope to have news for you very soon on what that money will be used for."
The council still has another £650,000 extra in its reserves, which is expected to be considered for use at a future executive board meeting.
