Council rents will rise three per cent to an average of £80.70 for the next year as West Lothian Council set its budget to come into force in April.
It will mean an average weekly rent increase of £2.35.
The minority Labour administration won support of the Tory group and independent councillor to pass the rent increase – the last by the current administration and the last in a five-year rent strategy agreed following a consultation with tenants in 2017.
