Check your Council Tax Bill !

To Avon & Somerset Police Authority


Good Morning

I received yesterday a copy of the budgets for 2009/10 with my Council Tax bill.

I am astounded that the Authority has agreed a ten fold increase against last years budget for 'Estates' of £2.6m to £20.5m, and approved a 'borrowing' level of £24.5m.

Can you provide detailed information on what the Police Authority is proposing to spend an additional £18m this year ?

Secondly from whom is the Authority proposing to 'borrow' this money from, over what period and on what terms ?

Yours sincerely
