Tax rise agreed. Lincolnshire PCC Marc Jones with Chief Constable Chris Haward. EMN-210502-142810001
The Police and Crime Panel today (Friday) all agreed to the PCC’s proposal to raise Council Tax by between 20p and 26p a week for most households (£14.94 extra for the year for a band D property) - which will deliver an additional
£2.9m in funding.
It equates to a 5.9 per cent rise in the policing element of Council Tax to pay for front line policing services.
The PCC and the new Chief Constable Chris Haward will now put their plans into action to improve safety within Lincolnshire communities.
