Report of the Director of Finance
Minutes:
The Cabinet considered a report of the Director of Finance which established the 2021/22 Council Tax base for tax setting purposes. Appendices to the report provided: Tax Base Calculation for 2021/22 Tax Setting (Coventry); Tax Base Calculation for 2021/22 Tax Setting (Allesley); Tax Base Calculation for 2021/22 Tax Setting (Finham); Tax Base Calculation for 2021/22 Tax Setting (Keresley); and Grant payments to parish councils
The Council Tax base was the measure of the taxable capacity of an area, for the purpose of calculating an authority's Council Tax. It represented the estimated number of Band D equivalent chargeable dwellings for the year. It also took into account the authority's estimated Council Tax collection rate.
This report did not set the actual level of Council Tax in Coventry, that would be set by Council at its meeting on the 23rd February 2021.
RESOLVED that the Cabinet:
1) Approves that the Council Tax collection rate for 2021/22 be set at 97.9%
