Are you favour of Settle Town Council proceeding with the Pump Track Lighting and Youth Shelter if it includes a council tax precept increase of 2.6% which is the equivalent of an additional £2989 a year for the purpose of the annual loan repayments?
What does this mean to the council tax payer?
To proceed with the electricity connection for the lighting at a cost of £23,512 (ex VAT) and the addition of a Youth Shelter at a cost £9,513 (ex VAT). The Total amount the Council will need to apply for is £13k (subject to interest rates) borrowed over 5 years. This will mean a small rise to the precept, the equivalent of £2.64 per year on a band D property. A cost of just 22p per month
