(6)          That it be determined that the City Council’s basic amount of council tax for 2019/20 is not excessive, when compared with the principles approved under Section 52ZB of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 (as amended by the Localism Act 2011), and therefore the City Council is not required to hold a local referendum.
