Title: Council Tax Rise
Post by: Cookham Webmaster on February 25, 2022, 05:14:26 PM
Council tax bills are set to rise by almost three per cent after councillors voted to approve the Royal Borough’s budget at Maidenhead Town Hall on Tuesday evening.

A 1.9 per cent increase in the general charge as well as a one per cent increase in the social care precept will see a council tax for a Band D property rise by £33.82 to £1,164.99.

It comes after councillors voted 23-14 to approve the 2022/23 budget, with Conservatives and Cllrs Jon Davey (Ind, Clewer and Dedworth West) and Neil Knowles (OWRA, Old Windsor) voting for approval.
