This is how much more council tax you’ll pay in Lincolnshire

A breakdown of council tax rises in Greater Lincolnshire.

Councils are looking at how to save the pennies.

By Stefan Pidluznyj, Local Democracy Reporter Stefan Pidluznyj, Local Democracy Reporter

Residents across the whole of Greater Lincolnshire face a significant increase in their council tax bills for 2018-19.

All 10 councils, plus the Lincolnshire and Humberside police and crime commissioners, have had their budgets for the next financial year beginning in April approved by councillors.

Communities Secretary Sajid Javid gave councils new powers to increase council tax by as much as 3% before calling a referendum, or by £5 for Band D properties.

Authorities with responsibility for adult social care are able to include a special precept to specifically fund this service.

All councils in the region have chosen to significantly increase council tax as their funding from central government continues to be reduced.

Below is a breakdown of how much council tax has risen, with a comparison of the 2017-18 figures with the recently agreed sums for 2018-19.

You can calculate how much extra council tax you’ll pay by adding the county council, district council and police and crime commissioner increases.
