2026-2027 Council Tax Base
To approve the council taxbase of the Council and each Parish Council for 2026-2027.
The purpose of this report is to seek approval for the 2026-2027 council taxbases of the Council and each Parish Council.
At its meeting on 11 January 2023, Cabinet approved the delegated authority to the Council’s Section 151 Officer, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Corporate Services (Now Finance and Governance), to approve the council taxbases of the Council and its parishes. A copy of the Cabinet report is attached below. The Council must, by law, determine its council taxbase for the forthcoming financial year and notify the figure to its precepting authorities by 31 January 2026. Council taxbases must similarly be determined in relation to each of the Parish Council areas falling within the Borough.
