County Council agree maximum tax rise
Councillors have agreed to raise council tax by the maximum 3.99 per cent while putting more into reserves.
It means people in Band A properties will pay an extra £39.26 a year to the council, while those in Band D homes will pay an additional £58.89.
After a nine-hour meeting yesterday, (Thursday, February 27) Conservative councillors at Nottinghamshire County Council voted through the budget with the support of their coalition partners, the Mansfield Independents.
