Keeping your Council Tax low

Before 2004, when Labour ran Cardiff Council the average annual council tax rise was 11% and in 1996 they managed a staggering 25% increase in one year alone.

Under the Lib Dems the average yearly Council Tax rise has been just 2.9%. In our first year in charge, we actually cut Council Tax.

So that's an average tax rise of 11% under Russell Goodway's Labour Party, and an average rise of just 2.9% under the Lib Dems.

The following table shows the annual percentage increases in Council Tax in Cardiff's Lib Dem-led Council compared to nearby Labour and Conservative run Councils.
