Council Tax for 2019/20

The report of the Executive Manager – Finance and Corporate Services is attached.

Minutes:

The Portfolio Holder for Finance presented the report of the Executive Manager – Finance and Corporate Services that set out the statutory Council Tax Resolution for 2019/20. It was noted that the resolution was a statutory requirement for billing authorities to approve prior to the billing and collection of Council Tax for the forthcoming financial year. Councillor Moore informed Council that Council Tax for a Band D property in Rushcliffe had been set for £137.79 for the coming year, the lowest Council Tax in Nottinghamshire and one of the lowest in the East Midlands.

 

The resolution consolidated the precepts of Nottinghamshire County Council, Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner, Nottinghamshire Fire Authority, Rushcliffe Borough Council and individual Town and Parish Councils. The recommendations were seconded by Councillor Edyvean.

 

It was RESOLVED that it be noted that the Council calculated the following amounts for the year 2019/20 in accordance with the Local Government Finance Act 1992 as amended (the “Act”);

 

a) Rushcliffe Borough Council’s Council Tax Base for 2019/20 has been calculated as 43,178.5 [Item T in the formula in Section 31B of the Local Government finance Act 1992 as amended by Section 74 of the Localism Act 2011 (the “Act”)]

 

b) For dwellings in those parts of the Borough to which a Parish Precept relates as detailed in Appendix Ai

 

c) The Council Tax requirement for the Council’s own purposes for 2019/20 (excluding Parish Precepts) is £5,949,566

 

d) That the following amounts be now calculated by the Council for the year 2019/20 in accordance with Sections 31 to 36 of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 as amended by Section 74 of the Localism Act 2011

 

i. £36,682,812 being the aggregate of the amounts which the Council estimates for the items set out in Section 31 A (2)(a) to (f) of the Act taking into account all precepts issued to it by Parish Councils. (Gross expenditure, parish and special expenses, any contingencies, any provisions for reserves)

 

ii. £27,870,800 being the aggregate of the amounts which the Council estimates for the items set out in Section (A) (3) (a) to (d) of the Act. (Gross income, any use of reserves)

 

iii. £8,812,012 being the amount by which the aggregate at (d)(i) above exceeds the aggregate of (d) (ii) above, calculated by the Council, in accordance with Section31A (4) of the Act, as its Council Tax Requirement. [Item R in the formula in Section 31B of the Act] (Expenditure less income)

 

iv. £204.08 being the amount at (d) (iii) above [Item R], all divided by Item T (a) above, calculated by the Council, in accordance with Section 31B (1) of the Act, as the basic amount of its council tax for the year (including parish precepts and special expenses)

 

v. £2,862,412 being the aggregate amount of the Parish Precepts and Special Expenses referred to in Section 34 (3) of the Act. (Total amount of parish precepts as per Appendix Ai)

 

vi. £137.79 being the amount at (d) (iii) above less (d) (v) above dividing the result by item T ((1) (a) above), calculated by the Council, in accordance with section34 (2) of the Act, as the basic amount of its Council Tax for the year for dwellings in those parts of its area to which no Parish Precepts or Special Expenses relate. (i.e. the Borough Council’s precept of £5,949,566 divided by the Council Tax base of 43,178.5 this Council’s own Council Tax at Band D)

 

e) That it be noted for the year 2019/20 Nottinghamshire County Council, Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner and Nottinghamshire and City of Nottingham Fire Authority have issued precepts in accordance with Section 40 of the Act for each of the categories of dwellings shown in Table 1

 

f) That the Council in accordance with Sections 30 and 36 of the Local Government Finance Act 1992, hereby sets the aggregate amounts shown in the Appendices A(i) and A(ii) for 2019/20 for each part of the Borough and for each of the categories of dwellings

 

g) The Council has determined that its relevant basic amount of Council Tax for 2019/20 is not excessive in accordance with principles approved under Section 52ZB Local Government Finance Act 1992 (as amended by the Local Audit and Accountability Act 2014). As the billing authority, the Council has not been notified by a major precepting authority that its relevant basic amount of Council Tax for 2019/20 is excessive and that the billing authority is not required to hold a referendum in accordance with Section 52ZK Local Government Finance Act 1992.
