Concerned about Speeding in our Villages?Why not volunteer for Community Speed Watch? The Neighbourhood Police Team are looking to re-introduce Community Speed Watch schemes across Nottinghamshire. The scheme aims to raise awareness of issues caused by speeding vehicles by providing education to drivers. If there are sufficient volunteers, Granby cum Sutton Parish Council will fund the equipment which will be used to conduct speed checks. Registration numbers of speeding vehicles will be passed to the Police who will send out warning letters and the data will help the Police identify locations for future Police speed checks where enforcement can take place. To register your interest please email the Parish Clerk, Claire Beecroft.

Parish Council Precept 2023-2024Parish Councils raise money from their parishioners via the Council Tax process. They do this by 'precepting' on the principal council (Rushcliffe Borough Council) who levy on tax payers in that parish as part of the Council Tax billing. A Council Tax payer's bill will typically include a Council Tax charge for the County Council, Police Authority, District or Borough Council and the Parish Council.
Over several meetings Cllrs have reviewed expenditure & income forecasts for the coming year. Reserve funds will need to be used to meet increasing running costs. Having considered this Cllrs decided upon an increase of 10%, which will result in a Band D level of £65.15, with the precept total being £12,120. |
