At a meeting on 7 October, Central Bedfordshire Council’s Executive agreed plans to consult on its Local Council Tax Support Scheme (LCTS) for working-age claimants.
A Central Bedfordshire resident has been sentenced to an £80 fine plus ordered to pay £250 in costs and a £32 victim surcharge after attempting to avoid paying Council Tax.
The Council is making £100,000 of funding available for its Children’s Centre Crisis Fund, an initiative designed to support families facing unexpected financial difficulties.
