Seasonal media reporting of levels of rises has an effect (council tax to soar 300% in ‘nice areas’)
Council tax is not broken but it has been neglected and used
A Taxing Issue…

Conclusions
Place matters – need to understand key local factors Will continue to do so under new regulatory regime
Local government clearly doesn’t get the credit for many improving services
Elephant in the room is VFM but not actual council tax
Communications matter task to demonstrate what you get for the money
Letting people feel they will be listened to matters but low expectations of influence?
Highlights the sector’s ongoing challenges being seen to matter….
