The Parish Council is financed by raising a precept, which was £20,840 for the financial year 2020/2021, on all of the residential properties in Potten End, Nettleden and Frithsden. In addition, it handles annual grants, known as concurrent services, provided by Dacorum Borough Council which for the current financial year amounted to £13,722 together with a Warden’s grant of £3,190.
Details of the Council’s budget for 2020/21 may be found here.
In April 2019, the Council received a payment of £1,328 under the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). CIL is a planning charge, introduced by the Planning Act 2008, as a tool for local authorities in England and Wales to help deliver infrastructure to support the development of their area. New developments that create net additional ‘gross internal area’ of 100 square metres or more, or create new dwellings, are potentially liable for the levy.
