Rutland County Council proposes a rise of 4.99% from April, Together4Rutland say they've looked at the budget and are looking for support from other Councillors for a 2.99% total rise.
A group of four Rutland County Councillors believe a nearly 5 per cent rise for Council Tax next year is too much, and they can make the numbers work on 3 per cent, whilst still keeping the 2 per cent for adult social care and providing more financial support for those struggling to pay. Together 4 Rutland say they need a majority of councillors to back their proposal this Monday night, and for residents to contact their ward members before the full council meeting if they believe a smaller increase is best.
