Anger over spending on Blackburn 'vanity' projects as council tax rises

OPPOSITION councillors hit out at spending on ‘vanity’ projects such as Blackburn’s new cinema during a debate on a proposed rise in households’ council tax by at least £52.70 a year. The finance council at Blackburn with Darwen Council met on Monday night to discuss the plan which could see a 3.99 per cent tax rise imposed by the authority – 1.99 per cent for general services then two per cent ringfenced for adult social care. The council tax plan for the total 3.99 per cent rise was given the green light. The total council tax bill for Band A terraced homes which make up the majority of the borough’s housing stock will rise by £52.70 a year, or £1.01 a week, to £1,287.62 for the 12 months from April 1.
