Local authorities around Scotland are setting their budgets and council tax rates ahead of the start of a new financial year in April.
The Scottish Government allows councils to increase council tax annually by up to 3% – but this is in addition to inflation, meaning the actual maximum increase of council tax is just shy of 5%.
Councils can choose to increase their levies by the maximum amount or by less.
Depending on which council area you live in, and what council tax band your property is in, you could find your annual bill rising by as little as around £35, or potentially as much as £190.
What have local authorities in your area decided to do?
We’ll be updating this story on a rolling basis as councils across the country agree their budgets.
