Plymouth councillors have agreed not to increase Council Tax this year but have approved a one per cent ‘precept’ to help cover budget pressures in adult social care.
The full Council on Monday agreed a motion to reduce the 2022/23 revenue budget by £2.1 million instead of increasing Council Tax.
Councillors approved a revenue budget of £197.7 million, as well as a five year capital programme totalling £688 million.
Most households in Council Tax bands A to D will be eligible for the £150 rebate being offered by the Government this year to help families manage the cost of living.
Council Tax bills also include precepts from police and fire authorities.
