The Design Code will help set design quality standards for new buildings and spaces and will be an important tool for everyone delivering new development across Bassetlaw. 🏠

A key part of the consultation is feedback from local communities, about what makes a place special and what works well and not so well in terms of the design of buildings, streets and spaces. 🏘

Bassetlaw District Councillors have approved the budget for the next financial year at a Full Council meeting on 27th February, including setting the amount of Council Tax it will collect over the next 12 months.

Despite facing continuing pressures, the Council has set a balanced budget for the year ahead with a total spend of £51 million which will help provide vital services in the district such as Waste and Recycling collection, Planning, Environmental Health and enforcement, Parks, Cemeteries, Economic Development and Community Safety.

This also includes investment in the district’s town centres, funding rural community projects, supporting Bassetlaw businesses, and funding for third sector organisations such as Citizens Advice, Bassetlaw Action Centre and BCVS.

The Council’s budget is funded by a combination of Government grants, fees and charges for Council services, and other income, with the balance of around £22 million provided by the Local Government Finance Settlement which includes other Central Government funding, Business Rates and Bassetlaw’s portion of Council Tax.

To help fund public services and secure the Council’s finances, the Council is raising its share of the Council Tax bill by 2.99% for the coming year from 1st April 2025.

For Band D properties, this will mean an increase of £5.98 or approximately 12p per week. However, around half of Bassetlaw properties are in Band A and they will see an increase of approx. £3.99 spread over the course of the next 12 months, the equivalent of 8p per week.

Your Council Tax is distributed in the following ways:*
Nottinghamshire County Council – 74.60% (including Adult Social Care)
Nottinghamshire Police – 11.66%
Bassetlaw District Council – 8.11%
Nottinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service - 3.83%
Parish Councils - 1.80%
