Parish Finances
Charvil Parish Council is a publicly funded body, working to improve your village. Our funding comes from the Precept, which is a small amount of your Council Tax – currently £96.77 per year for a band D property.
The Parish Council produce financial documents to support the minutes and agenda, and record all individual items of expenditure in the minutes each month.
Below are the annual budgets for the Village Hall, East Park Farm Pavilion and the Parish Council and the Annual Return for the current year.
Previous year’s financial reports are available, on request, from the Parish Clerk
How We Spend the Parish Precept
Community Infrastructure Levy
The Community Infrastructure Levy (the ‘levy’) is a charge which can be levied by local authorities on new development in their area. It is an important tool for local authorities to use to help them deliver the infrastructure needed to support development in their area.
The levy only applies in areas where a local authority has consulted on, and approved, a charging schedule which sets out its levy rates and has published the schedule on its website.
Most new development which creates net additional floor space of 100 square metres or more, or creates a new dwelling, is potentially liable for the levy.
Some developments may be eligible for relief or exemption from the levy. This includes residential annexes and extensions, and houses and flats which are built by ‘self-builders’. There are strict criteria that must be met, and procedures that must be followed, to obtain the relief or exemption.
