Eden District Council

Council

26 February 2009

Setting of Combined Council Tax 2009-2010

Report of the Director of Finance

1 Introduction

1.1 Section 30(1) of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 requires the Council to set, for each financial year, an amount of Council Tax for each category of dwelling in its area. 1.2 These amounts are based on the Budget Requirement and tax base which the Council has previously calculated, together with the amounts notified by major precepting authorities. The process of setting the Council Tax involves no discretion on the part of the Council. 1.3 Although the process itself is relatively straightforward, the detail of the Act means that the resolution made by the Council must conform to a set format, and contain a great degree of detail. Section 2 of this report consists of a recommended resolution which meets these requirements. It is divided into the following sections: (a) Budget Requirement; (b) Council Tax Base; (c) Basic Amount of Tax; (d) Calculation of Tax for different Valuation Bands; (e) Precepts of Major Precepting Authorities, and (f) Setting of Council Tax.

1.4 For information, a simplified version of the calculation is shown at Appendix A.

Appendix A

Calculation of Amounts of Council Tax

1. The Expenditure Requirements Eden's expenditure plus the parish and town council precepts, net of Government grants and any adjustment for any surplus or deficit from the Council Tax Collection Funds for previous years, make up Eden's net requirement from the Council Tax Collection Fund. This is added to the County Council and Police Authority precepts and results in an amount required to be collected via Council Tax. Eden's expenditure requirement of £8,045,098 was approved by the Council on 12 February 2009. Parish precept requirements of £388,188 have been received. Added together this produces a Budget Requirement of £8,433,286. Amounts receivable from central government are:

£ Revenue Support Grant 857,276 National Non-Domestic Rates Pool 3,714,157 4,571,433

There is estimated to be a zero balance on the 2008-9 Collection Fund. The average Band D Council Tax for Eden is calculated as follows:

2009-10 2008-9 Change £ £ % Budget Requirement: Eden's Expenditure Plans 8,045,098 7,830,299 +2.7 Parish Precepts 388,188 381,404 +1.8 8,433,286 8,211,703 +2.7 Less: Central Government Support 4,571,433 4,512,260 +1.3 Less: Collection Fund Surplus 0 0 Eden's net demand 3,861,853 3,699,443 +4.4

Average Band D Council Tax: Including Parish Precepts 188.61 180.16 +4.7 Excluding Parish Precepts 169.65 161.59 +4.99

Cumbria County Council and Cumbria Police Authority have had to undertake a similar exercise to arrive at their net demands and precepts upon Eden. These figures are £23,338,747 and £3,854,502 respectively. The Band D amounts are £1,139.84 for the County and £188.25 for the Police: increases over 2008-9 of 2.5% and 4.9% respectively.

Therefore the 2009-10 Collection Fund is as follows:

2009-10 2008-9 % £ £ Expenditure Eden District Council 3,861,853 3,699,443 Cumbria County Council 23,338,747 22,834,230 Cumbria Police Authority 3,854,502 3,684,976 31,055,105 30,218,649 Income Demand on Eden Taxpayers 31,055,102 30,218,649

Tax Base 20,475.44 20,533.69

Average Band D Council Tax in Eden 1,516.70 1,471.66 +3.06

2. Tax Base 2.1 To calculate the Council Tax payable per property requires the tax base (the number of properties against which the tax can be collected) to be calculated. Every property has been valued by the Valuation Office and placed into one of eight valuation bands (Bands A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H). Each band is given a factor to bring it to a Band D equivalent. The total of the Band D equivalents after allowing for discounts etc, is then multiplied by the collection rate, which for Eden in 2009-10 is 99.25%, to give the Council Tax Base. 2.2 The Tax Base for Eden is 20,475.44. The Tax Base is split into each individual parish or area. 3. Calculation of Tax Rate 3.1 The expenditure requirement of the collection fund (less Special Items ie parish precepts and Special Expenses) of £30,494,877 is then divided by the Tax Base of 20,475.44. This produces the Band D tax of £1,489.34. Each valuation band is then calculated as a proportion of Band D as follows:

Band A B C D E F G H Proportion 6 ÷ 9 7 ÷ 9 8 ÷ 9 9 ÷ 9 11 ÷ 9 13 ÷ 9 15 ÷ 9 18 ÷ 9 Tax 992.89 1,158.38 1,323.85 1,489.34 1,820.30 2,151.28 2,482.23 2,978.68

3.2 Special items are calculated for each parish and unparished area by aggregating the following: (i) Parish Precepts Each individual parish precept is divided by the respective parish tax base to give a Band D parish tax, and the proportionment calculation to give each of the other bands is calculated as above in paragraph 3.1. The amounts in respect of each parish precept are as follows:
