Council Tax

How the council tax is calculated

 

Each year in March, the council tax is set by the Council Assembly.

 

The starting point is the total expected expenditure plus the amount required to be paid to the Greater London Authority.

 

Government Grants, other charges raised and the authority's share of income from the National Business Rate Fund is then deducted from this figure.

 

The remaining balance is the amount to be collected through council tax, which is then divided by band D equivalents throughout the borough.

 

A band D property is treated as Standard and all other bands are then calculated as pro-rata proportions of the Standard.
