Parish Survey
Parish Council Precept 2021/22
The Speed Watch Group and the Stinchcombe Playground Working Party have sent all Stinchcombe households a survey asking what level of Precept the Council should levy and what level the householders would be willing to pay.
So, I downloaded what the other Parish Councils Precept was. However, all I could only find the year 2019/20, but the rates would be similar now.
For 2019/20 Based on Valuation Band D
| Parish | Precept | Parish |
| Elmore | 2,472.00 | 26.95 |
| Harescombe | 5,211.00 | 50.06 |
| Haresfield | 5,887.00 | 37.87 |
| Longney & Epney | 3,950.00 | 28.62 |
| Pitchcombe | 3,000.00 | 21.28 |
| Stinchcombe | 3,500.00 | 16.63 |
My Notes
- The average Parish Precept for a village like our has got to be £10-£15 more than we are currently paying.
- The Parish Council is discouraged from building up surpluses. Therefore any increase in yearly income needs to be balanced against a yearly increase in spending. Not for just one project.
