Council tenants are facing an average weekly rent increase of two per cent amid the cost-of-living crisis.
The proposed hike has been outlined in papers prepared for next week's full council meeting as bosses plan to pump £242million into housing over the next five years.
If the plans get the go-ahead, it means the average weekly rent for a two-bed property would rise from £89.59 to £91.38, with an annual bill coming in at £4,751.76.
