Annual budget
The majority of the council's annual budget is raised through the precept. An amount is paid by each household in the parish, through their Council Tax payment, which is determined by the Parish Council.
The precept income is supplemented through grants and other fundraising.
From September each year the Parish Council begins the process of forward planning in preparation for setting a work plan, budget and precept for the following council year (which runs from April to March).
Councillors suggest and debate potential new projects, services or activities and discuss and debate whether to continue the 'business as usual' aspects of the Parish Council's work or whether to revise these.
A first draft budget to deliver the resultant work plan is then prepared and presented to the Finance Committee in December.
The precept (that amount of the Council Tax which is collected on behalf of the Parish Council by South Gloucestershire Council) is determined by the budget needed.
Following further refinement and adjustments, a final draft budget is presented at the January Parish Council meeting.
The approved budgets for the current and previous council years are available to view and download here.
