Parish Council Precept 2023-2024

Parish 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.
