RCT Council Tax still amongst highest in Wales
Wales Online have been taking a look at the likely Council Tax increases across Wales and the cuts Councils are having to make.
RCT failed to give a figure, just saying there will be a small increase. Yet a report to Cabinet next week suggests an increase of 2.75%. Of course the Cabinet may decide not to give the green light to this – there was an unexpected U-turn over several proposed budget cuts earlier this week – but that is the proposal. On top of this will be the increase in the Police precept.
The article shows that the Council Tax in RCT is still amongst the highest in Wales. The figures given are for Band D, but the difference is there right across the bands.
Residents may well be wondering just what value they are getting.
