About your council tax

Council tax is the main source of locally raised income for us. The money we collect is used to part-fund the many services provided for the local community.

If you would like further information regarding your charges, banding or other queries please see our Related Links on this page.

Most self-contained dwellings are subject to council tax. There is one bill per dwelling, whether this is a house, bungalow, flat, maisonette, mobile home or houseboat. The charge applies whether the home is owned or rented.

The tax raised is based on the value of your property. There are a number of exemptions, discounts and disregards available if certain circumstances apply. Please take a look at our guidance documents below.
