Dodleston Parish Council
Financial Framework
The Parish Council’s main source of income is the parish precept, which is collected through Council Tax from properties within the parish.

Parish councils are required to account for how public money is spent and publish financial information for residents to inspect.
Each year Dodleston Parish Council:
- prepares a budget for the coming financial year
- decides how much money is required
- sets a parish precept
- publishes its annual accounts and is subject to internal and external audit
