The Government have funded a Council Tax freeze across the country. Some are still raising very slightly though although 4/5 have taken up the deal.

We've had 2.4% over the last 5 or more years, so we can't really complain whatever ours turns out to be

Chelmsford has frozen I think I heard. But something about some of the other chunks of it going up a bit.

I've read stuff on our councils website and I think it's going to stay the same. It kind of hints at it but I've not seen a listed of stated prices yet unless I missed them, I was half asleep.
