Council Tax
Most properties are subject to Council Tax, which helps to pay for the cost of local services. There is one bill per property, whether it is a house, bungalow, flat, maisonette, mobile home or houseboat, and whether it is owned or rented.
Every property is allocated a valuation band (letter from A to H). Each band pays a different amount of Council Tax (A the lowest, to H the highest).
You can pay your Council Tax securely online or view the Paying Your Council Tax page to see all methods of payment available, including Direct Debit.
Some properties are exempt from Council Tax and some people will be eligible for discounts. You can appeal to us if you think you are not liable to pay, or (in certain limited circumstances) against the banding to the local Valuation Officer.
What happens if I can't pay?

Each year we send out a "Your guide to your council services" booklet with your new year's council tax bill.
This booklet explains how we work out the council tax charge, and how we spend the money that we collect to help pay for cost of local services.
A copy of the booklet can be downloaded from this page.
