Closed petition Limit yearly council tax increases to level of inflation

Closed on

Many local authorities are increasing their levels of council tax at unprecedented rates. 116 out of 151 councils have increased the council tax bill to the maximum 3.99%, outstripping the rise in inflation.

This has put enormous strain on normal families to cover the rise. Thus, council tax should not be allowed to rise more than inflation.
