By far the largest amount of the Parish Council’s income comes from North Somerset Council by way of your Council Tax. This is called the precept and is paid to the Council in two payments in April and September. The second largest amount comes from Wrington Vale medical centre which pays ground rent to the Council for their surgery. Smaller amounts come from Burial Ground fees and Wayleave payments from Westernpower.
Each of the three committees Open Spaces, Play Area and Recreation decide what services and facilities they would like to provide and compiles a budget. These are given to the Finance and Personnel committee who complies the costings for administration, training, insurance and other budget headings. This committee then looks carefully at each submission and decides what their final costs will be. The total of these costs is what the Parish Council asks North Somerset for and is known as the precept.
