£5 a year council tax rise confirmed by Torridge council

Torridge District Council s HQ, Riverbank House, in Bideford - Credit: TDC Torridge District Council has decided to increase Council Tax by £5 per year to maintain front line services and provide extra support for the vulnerable.  Like many Council’s Torridge has needed to adapt to sudden and dramatic increases in demand for support services, rising operational costs coupled with reducing income from commercial operations which it often relies on to subsidise many of its services for the more vulnerable due to the Covid-19 pandemic.  Central Government funding for Torridge in 2021/22 will decline by a further £183k. Left unchecked all of this would eventually lead the Council revenue budgets into the red with the prospect of reducing or having to stop some services altogether.
