Wandsworth Council is proposing to cut council tax for the next year, believed to be the only local authority in the country to be reducing council tax bills.
Seeking to provide value for money for residents by paying the lowest council tax possible while getting high quality services, the council says that its proposals will take the borough’s overall average Band D council tax bill for the entire year to £872.55.
Approximately half of London boroughs will be raising council tax by over £70 per household including the GLA increase. The Mayor of London is proposing to increase his share of council tax by 8.8 per cent, meaning its precept will rise by £31.93 a year.
Wandsworth councillors have proposed a net one per cent decrease in Wandsworth’s share of council tax.
Kim Caddy, cabinet member for finance, corporate resources and climate sustainability, said: “Low council tax is synonymous with Wandsworth because of the efforts this council goes to in looking after its money properly and most importantly of all looking out for our residents. We hope that these proposals will really help make a difference and help residents keep their household costs down as we all continue to emerge from the pandemic.”
