At a meeting of the District Council’s Cabinet on 2nd February, members agreed to propose that St Albans City and District Council’s council tax for 2010/11 be decreased by 0.4% to ensure nobody has to pay more than last year.Because of the way Council Tax is calculated across the District, overall this would mean that those residents living in Parish areas will see a reduction in their rate of council tax and for those residents in the unparished City wards, council tax will, in effect, be frozen – a 0% increase. The figures will be proposed to the meeting of full Council on 24th February.
