Council Tax Setting Committee

The Full Council has given authority for the Council Tax Setting Committee to set out the Council Tax each year.

The committee set the Council Tax for the District. To do this, they have to take into account the precepts provided to them by Devon County Council, Devon and Cornwall Police Authority, Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service and the Local Town and Parish Councils.

For more information about Council Tax, including what percentage each authority receives, please see How is my Council Tax Spent.

The Council Tax Setting Committee consists of four District Councillors. The Leader of the Council is the Chair of the Committee.

Cllr Julian Brazil, the Leader of the Council
Cllr John Birch
Cllr Mark Long
Cllr Dan Thomas, the Deputy Leader of the Council
