Charges for 2019/20
How much will I pay?
What you'll pay for 2019/20 depends on the 'banding' of your property and your own Town or Parish Council’s precept. To find out exactly how much you'll pay, see Council Tax Charge per Town or Parish below.

How is it spent in Mid Devon and how does this compare to last year?
The following chart shows how our gross spending plans for 2019/20 compare to 2018/19:
Although we’ve increased our share of council tax by 2.998% for 2019/20, our overall proportion has decreased from 10.7% in 2018/19 to 10.5% for 2019/20. A Band D property will be required to pay £203.84.
The proportion of charges are calculated in relation to a Band 'D' property as follows:
|
A |
6/9ths (two-thirds of the full charge) |
E |
11/9ths |
|
B |
7/9ths |
F |
13/9ths |
|
C |
8/9ths |
G |
15/9ths |
|
D |
9/9ths (the full charge) |
H |
18/9ths (twice the full charge) |
In 2019/20, we'll continue to deliver a wide range of high performing services, set against the harsh reality of Central Government’s ongoing austerity programme, which has seen the council’s core funding grant reduced by circa £4.2m since 2010.
Like many councils, we've had to make some difficult choices in order to produce a balanced budget. By focusing on driving further efficiencies and maximising the use of our large property estate, we've managed to keep service cuts to an absolute minimum.
Moving forward into 2019/20, we're seeing the benefit of:
- working in partnership with some of our neighbouring councils;
- increased leisure centre membership numbers generated from the major gym and dance studio investments at Exe Valley and Lords Meadow sites, and;
- the delivery of the first three housing development sites by our development company, 3 Rivers Development Ltd.
Additionally, we're masterplanning for significant housing growth planned for the Tiverton Eastern Urban Extension, the Northwest Cullompton Urban Extension and the new Culm Garden Village. This will ensure that these new developments deliver well planned, high quality housing that serve as a model example of modern living.
Looking forward, all councils are facing a very uncertain future as Central Government are consulting on making changes to all areas of Local Government funding. This makes current medium-term financial planning very challenging.
