Council tax
You may be able to claim council tax discount, if you live alone, are a student, have mental health problems, or are of a certain age or occupation.
Use this form to apply for a council tax discount.
Whether you own or are the tenant of a property, if you live in that property you are liable to pay the council tax for that property.
Properties occupied by students, under 18s, severely mentally impaired people, unoccupied or empty, are usually exempt from paying council tax.
Recovery and Enforcement begins when any liable person fails to pay the amount due on a reminder or final notice sent by us.
