Commissioners' Surgery This Monday...
There will be a political surgery this coming Monday at the Dhoon Hall at 7.00 pm. Residents are encouraged to come down to discuss any matters relevant to the business of the Commissioners.
Perhaps you would like a brief on the transfer of charges from taxation to rates which will impact in the coming financial year. In short the Commissioners portion of the rate will remain at the current level of 108p despite the increases in central government imposed charges; including those for audit services and the civic amenity site at Ballacallow. A further charge of £27.50 will also be included on the rates demand for Year End 2011. This is to cover the charge for tipping of domestic waste at the Energy from Waste Plant which has been tripled for next year.
The Commissioners would very much welcome the opportunity to discuss these matters with ratepayers at the surgery on Monday evening. ¶ 19:56
