GREAT BRADLEY PARISH COUNCIL FINANCES
2024
2023
The work that your Parish Council does for the village is largely financed by raising a precept/ levy via the Council Tax on all 155 equivalent band D properties in the village. The amount varies from year to year and depends upon what needs doing, how much grant aid we can obtain from different sources (usually from West Suffolk Council and Suffolk County Council and sometimes Havebury).
In the financial year 2019/20 the precept was £11,300 which equates to £89.89 per band D household.
The accounting year is to the end of March and a presentation of the accounts is made to the Parish Council by the Clerk as soon as possible after that date. In any event a summary of the financial situation is presented to the Annual Village Meeting in the Spring even if the full accounts are not made up by that date. Budgeting for the following financial year is normally done in December and the final budget is agreed at the January Parish Council meeting. West Suffolk Council are then informed as to the Great Bradley precept requirements.
Any village organisation that needs financial assistance is advised to inform the Parish Council at the earliest opportunity in order that it may be considered and then, if agreed, included in the budget for the following year. However, life is not always like that and sometimes money is needed more urgently which is why the Parish Council has reserves to cover contingencies.
