In response to a query from Cricklade Town Council, Michael Hudson stated that he would follow up to see if the information had been sent to town and parish councils giving more detailed analysis.

 

Resolved

 

1.    To approve the Council Tax Base 2018/2019.

 

2.    To note that the recommended collection rate adjustments are set at 99.75% and 82.50% which reflects current expectations for collection (further details are outlined in the main body of the report).

 

Reasons for Decision:

 

Before the Council Tax can be set by the Council in February 2018 a calculation has to be made and approved of the Council Tax Base, which is an annual requirement as laid out in the Local Government Finance Act 1992.
