FEES AND CHARGES FOR COUNCIL SERVICES
FROM 1st APRIL 2014
This booklet aims to keep you better informed about the Council’s charges for the year. It has
mainly been produced for internal use but is available to the general public on the Council’s
website www.fdean.gov.uk
Although the fees and charges are correct at the time of going to print, they could be subject to
change during the year and the charge at the time the service is provided will prevail.
We would welcome your comments about this booklet so that we can improve it in future years.
Please call Forest of Dean District Council on 01594 810000 or email council@fdean.gov.uk
Payment methods are set out on our website. In line with national aspirations, we are
progressively asking customers to move away from cash and cheque payment. To support this
all payments can be made electronically from our website either as part of an application form
for a service listed in this document or on an ad-hoc basis indicating what the payment is for.
To help customers, all electronic application forms contain automatic pricing to match this price
list.
All fees and charges included in this booklet are in GBP £.
