Sandwell Council House A PROPOSED Sandwell council tax rise of 2.99 per cent has been criticised as too high by a Labour councillor while services are cut back due to Covid. Cllr Paul Moore has said the increase will be a ‘hard sell’ while areas such as garden waste collections and fly-tipping teams are working at reduced levels. But Sandwell chiefs say the rise is the smallest in West Midlands and is below the government’s cap of 4.99 per cent being proposed by other councils. Questioning the rise, the Hateley Heath ward councillor disagreed with his own party’s ruling cabinet, saying: “Obviously we all know we are going through a worldwide pandemic at the moment but in terms of the level of service people in Sandwell are receiving, things like litter collection bin collections, repairs, etc, have been disrupted.
