Tax Details
As a result of effective management of financial risks over the last 11 years (budgeting for costs that will occur and then ensuring funds are used, easing the burden for rate payers on expenditure such as building/facilities maintenance and the replacement of assets) the Town Council has managed to freeze our part of the council tax bill for the 2024 – 2025 year (this is after freezing it the last two years and reducing it by -5.5% and -1% in the previous two years before that).
In fact, over the last 20+ years the Town Council part of the tax bill has increased by less than £2.00 per year.
