Minutes:
The Portfolio Holder for Finance and Legal Services advised that at paragraph 9 in the report, a minor error had been identified in column G in the table. The figure should read 1,859.98 and not 1,859.99. This had been corrected on the website.
In response to a question the Monitoring Officer confirmed that Council Standing Orders 16.4A stated that, immediately after any vote was taken at a budget decision meeting of the Council there must be recorded in the minutes of that meeting the names of the Members who cast a vote for or against the decision or who abstained from voting.
A recorded vote was taken and Members unanimously approved the formal council tax resolutions and individual tax settings for 2018/19.
RESOLVED: |
