Islington Council s proposal to effectively hike council tax by nearly five per cent has been rubber stamped.
A budget for the next financial year was approved by the Labour-led council last night (February 25).
Basic council tax is increasing by 1.99pc, along with a 3pc adult social care (ASC) precept, meaning the average household will have to pay an extra £60 this year.
The plan accounts for further increases of 1.99pc over the next two years to try to plug a £25m shortfall blamed on the coronavirus pandemic.
