Council Budget
The council recognises that there is a balance between providing quality services and ensuring that the foundation for everything that is undertaken is based on sound finances. In particular there is recognition that wherever possible any increase in the precept should reflect general increases in the cost of living.

Asset Register
Year ending 2018/19
Our underlying principles in managing our finances over the next year will be:
1. Unallocated reserves of between 10 –15% of expenditure will be maintained to cover any unforeseen/unexpected costs
2. To ensure that any services taken on or developed will have a cost neutral impact on the budget unless the Town Council decides to employ a higher standard of service.
3. The Town Council will investigate alternative sources of fundraising, where possible.
