Allowances & Expenses
Town Council:
None. As a Town Councillor I get no allowances and no expenses. All my work is voluntary and free. I hope, therefore, I provide good value for money!
District Council:
As a District Councillor I receive a basic allowance. In 2019 I was promoted to Cabinet and also receive a Special Responsibility Allowance for the extra work that involves. The only expenses I claim are the car expenses for travel to official sanctioned meetings, all claims are checked by Officers and approved. I have never voted for a rise in allowances.
County Council:
