Lesson 16. Council fax

This is fax collected by local authorities. It is a tax on domestic property. In general, the bigger the property is, the more tax will be charged.

Each property is put into a valuation band. At the time of writing the bands are as listed below.
The council tax is used to pay for local services such as rubbish collection, schools and the fire service.
Council tax is not paid on some properties, for example any property that only students live in or a property where all the people who live in it are aged under 18.
If only one person lives in a property they will get a 25% discount on the 
council tax bill.

EXAMPLE:

Jack lives on his own in a flat worth £75000. This year’s council tax rates in his area are shown in the table below:
(a) How much council tax will Jack have to pay this year?
(b) If he spreads the council tax payment over 10 months, how much will
     he pay each month?
(a) Using the table at the start of this section, Jack’s flat is in band D. The
     other table shows he must pay £1200 this year.
     Jack lives on his own so gets a 25% discount.
    25% of £1200 = £300
    Jack pays £1200 – £300 = £900
(b) If the payment is spread over 10 months, each month Jack pays
     £900 ÷ 10 = £90.
