At Full Council on 3 March, the 2022/23 budget was agreed and the Council Tax was set. The budget ensures there is investment into priority areas, such as the introduction of free passes for our toilets for our vulnerable residents and funding to create a £1 million climate investment fund.

Due to the financial impact of the pandemic and increasing costs, Council Tax will rise by 2.99%, which includes a 1% precept for adult social care.

We fully recognise the financial strain households are facing with increasing costs and the decision wasn’t taken lightly. We will work closely with our partners to ensure we offer support to those who need it.

Additional financial support for households will also be given through the £150 Council Tax rebate.
