Minutes:

The Cabinet received and considered the agenda report and its three appendices.

 

This item was presented by Mr R Barrow (Cabinet Member for Residents Services).

 

Mr P Jobson (Revenue Operations Manager) was in attendance for this matter.

 

Mr Barrow introduced the report by summarising the nature and purpose of, and the process (section 6 of the report) for, setting the tax-base for 2019-2020. He made particular reference to the parish grant allocation position (para 6.3 of the report).

 

Mr Jobson commented that the tax-base calculation for 2019-2020 had proved to be slightly more complex because some developers had found it more difficult to say when their developments would be completed and this was reflected in the calculation.
