Wiltshire Police seeks £15 annual council tax hike to avoid cutting frontline services due to a £4.6M funding gap.
Wiltshire Police is seeking a £15 annual increase on average Band D council tax bills to address a £4.6 million funding gap for 2026/27, warning that without the boost, frontline services could be at risk.
The Police and Crime Commissioner cited low government funding, despite improved performance and public trust, and said all internal savings have been exhausted.
The proposed rise, the maximum allowed without a referendum, aims to maintain current service levels amid criticism of national funding policies.
