Closed petition End council tax discount on second homes

Closed on

Stop discounting council tax for second home owners. Currently second home owners can get a discount between 10 and 50% discount. Demand for second homes has seen house prices increase to prices too high for many local people to get on the housing ladder.

If people are fortunate enough to have a second home they should pay for that privilege.
