North West Leicestershire District Council is required to collect the council tax not just for itself but also on behalf of Leicestershire County Council, Leicestershire Police, Leicestershire Fire Service plus town and parish councils.
These bodies are responsible for deciding the amount they require - the District Council has no control over this. Only a relatively small proportion of council tax is kept by North West Leicestershire District Council to pay for its own services.
Most homes are subject to Council Tax. Each has been allocated to one of eight bands based on the capital value of the property on 1st April 1991. For details on the current Valuation Bands, please click on the link below. more...
