Council increases precept for 2018-19
Waltham Abbey Town Council has increased its precept for the next financial year by 1.95%, with a Band D equivalent increase of £2.06 per year.
The increase in the precept from £800,400 to £825,800 covers the reduction in the Local Council Tax Scheme mitigation grant, but this is the last year the council will receive any grant for this.
The town council will be looking at facilities on Larsen’s recreation ground, and also the war memorial in Farm Hill Road in 2018-19.
* Waltham Abbey Town Council has agreed to award the YES Partnership £500 towards a youth conference being held in Waltham Abbey.
The funding has been made possible by the YES Partnership now holding formal charity status.
