Cardiff council tax to increase 1.9% in budget to ‘tackle cost of living crisis’

Council tax in Cardiff will likely increase by 1.9 per cent as part of Cardiff council’s budget to “tackle the cost of living crisis".

The tax hike would take effect from April, if approved by a majority of councillors in a crucial vote on March 3 on next year’s proposed budget.

The budget also sees millions of extra funding for schools, social services and youth centres, and more than £400 million over the next five years on building new council housing.
