Cirencester Town Council - Council Tax 2025-26

Every year this is a challenging issue to debate because we know the wider impact it has; equally, our role is to support the local community and provide services which meet the social, environmental and economic needs of Cirencester. We do not receive any direct funding from central government or the principal authorities. This year the impact of the increase in our budget estimates on a Band D equivalent household is 53 pence per month, which equates to a monthly increase of £2.28. This is an increase of 12.14%.

For a Band A property the monthly increase will be £1.52 and for a Band H £4.56.

There are 10,235 town and parish councils in England which have the power to raise council tax, also known as the precept. 8,887 town and parish councils raise council tax to support the delivery of services in their area. Figures relating to the percentage increase across all town and parish councils in England for 2025-26 will be published later in the year.
