Financial Arrangements with Parish Councils |
The joint report of the Director of Finance and Cabinet Member for Finance provided details of the proposed allocations to individual parish councils under the Scheme of Financial Arrangements with Parish Councils for the financial year 2013/14. Reference was made to the methodology agreed in liaison with the Parish Partnership Panel in 2008 for the budget to be increased or decreased by the same percentage as that in the Borough Council's Revenue Support Grant settlement in the previous year. It was noted that the Council's Revenue Support Grant for 2012/13 had been cut by 11.9% and the Annex to the report set out the allocations to individual parish councils in accordance with the agreed methodology. RECOMMENDED: That (1) the agreed methodology be adopted in calculating the allocations to parish councils under the Scheme of Financial Arrangements with Parish Councils for the year 2013/14; and (2) Parish Councils be notified of their allocations as set out in Annex 1 to the report. *Referred to Cabinet |
