A Nottinghamshire community that already felt it was not getting value for money for council tax is angry about rises making it the most expensive in the country. Those living in Band D homes in Ollerton, will be paying the highest council tax in the country from April, at £2,324.
The rates differ for those in Band A, B and C properties. Residents say they are not happy with the roads and bin collection service among other things.
Resident Kate Ryan, 67, told Nottinghamshire Live she thought the charges did not reflect the standard of services the area received. She said: “I’d like to think we get value for money for why we are the highest but the roads are appalling, the collections have gone down in the past few years.
