Wilmslow Council raises taxes 2% for local projects; Cheshire East considers 9.99% hike for vital services.
Wilmslow Town Council approved a 2% council tax rise, adding about £1.12 annually, to fund £1.27 million in local projects including park upgrades, a new community centre, and youth programs, using reserves to limit the increase below inflation.
Meanwhile, Cheshire East Council is considering a proposed 9.99% tax hike—well above the 4.99% cap—to raise £15.5 million for essential services like care for vulnerable children, adults with disabilities, and older residents.
The plan, pending government approval and a final council vote on 25 February, follows public consultation and reviews of budget-saving options.
