Abinger Parish Council wish to make it clear that the parish precept increase, as shown on the Mole Valley Council Tax bills recently sent out, is incorrect. The bills show a Parish Council precept increase of 9.8% when the true figure is actually 4.17%.

Mole Valley District Council admit that they incorrectly included a separate grant in the overall figure that formed the basis of their percentage increase. In an explanation on their website they say that while the annual charges on the Council Tax bills were correct, "there was an error in the calculation of the percentage change since last year on parish precepts."

The true percentage increase can be viewed at http://www.molevalley.gov.uk/media/pdf/2/c/Mole_Valley_Parish_Precepts_2016.pdf
