Council income
Fees and funding
The Council receives most of its money from three main sources. In 2017/18, we expect to receive
- £346.5 million from the Scottish Government
- £355.1 million from Business rates
- £266.3 million from Council Tax (net).
The breakdown figures above have been updated since the Council Tax leaflet for 2017/18 was issued. It reflects the revised respective funding contribution from Government Grant and Non-Domestic Rates set out within Finance Circular 1/2017.

We charge for some of our services, like use of facilities, school meals, and adult education.
