    Decisions:

    The Head of Revenues and Benefits provided the Cabinet with the report, which formally set out the Council Tax Base for the financial year 2021/22.

     

    The officer advised that the gross Council Tax Base calculated for 2020/21 was £79,380.78 and proposed that the collection rate was to be estimated at 97.25%.  This produces a net Council Tax Base of £77,197.81.  This meant that for every £1 levied in Council Tax next year, a sum of £77,198 would be generated to meet the budget requirement of the Council.

     

    The Cabinet Member for Corporate Services was happy to support the recommendations, noting that the report was considered on an annual basis as part of the Budget setting process.

     

    The Leader thanked the officer for the report and it was RESOLVED:

     

    1.    That in accordance with the Local Authorities (Calculation of Council Tax Base) (Wales) Regulations 1995 as amended, the amount calculated by the Council as its net tax base for the financial year 2021/22, shall be £77,197.81; and

    2.    That for each defined community area of the County Borough, the 2021/22 tax base for Council Tax setting purposes, shall be as set out at Appendix 1 of the report.
