The council tax level 2010/11

The amount to be collected from council tax

It can be seen that the net cost of the council's services in 2010/11 is £220.6 million. To calculate how much council tax we need to raise to pay for these services we have to take account of:

  • The amount to be received from central government by way of revenue support grant and the redistribution of business rate income.
  • The cost of the precepts in respect of Greater Manchester Police, and Fire and Civil Defence authorities.
  • Any surplus or deficit on the collection fund relating to the collection of council tax in earlier years.

The position is summarised below:

Details 2009/10 million pounds 2010/11 million pounds
City council's revenue budget 218.3 220.6
less redistributed non-domestic rates -104.0 -113.7
less revenue support grant -24.0 -16.5
Add any surplus or deficit on the collection fund relating to the collection of council tax in earlier years

City council council tax requirement 90.3 90.4

The total net expenditure is apportioned to council tax payers on a property value basis by reference to the council tax base. Details of how this base is calculated and the impacts it has on the council tax you pay are given in the pages that follow.
