THE PARISH BUDGET  

The budgeting process takes place during December / January prior to the forthcoming financial year and
defines what funds are required to carry out the proposed business of the Council in serving the local community.
 
The Council considers when and how much of the budgeted funds should be spent on any particular service or
project. The forecast end of year carry-forward is then off-set against the budget to leave the precept. The precept
is sourced by the District Council, on behalf of the Parish Council, from local tax payers via Council Tax.

 

For the Financial Year 2009 / 2010 the Council has precepted for £143,776 to support a budget of £291,309.

On a band D property this represents £47.65 which is an increase of £1.39 per annum on last year’s precept.

The average band D rate in South Staffordshire is £47.65.
