Devon and Somerset residents sought
Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Fire Authority are asking local residents and businesses to tell them how they feel about the service that they provide, as part of their annual precept survey that closes on Tuesday 26 November.
The answers received will influence the amount of the council tax that residents and businesses pay goes towards funding Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service.
The Authority anticipates that by 2025/26, a saving of £1.8m will be needed due to changes in government funding and rising costs of delivering our services such as materials, energy and employment costs.
This saving is based on a year-on-year increase of 1.99% to council tax over this period. Every 1% increase to council tax precept amounts to just over £600,000 to the Service this year.
