Central Bedfordshire Council has approved changes to its Local Council Tax Support (LCTS) scheme for working-age residents.

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.

We've successfully prosecuted a resident for fraudulently claiming Council Tax Support and a Single Person Discount.

Fewer reports of potholes – and more of them repaired faster – is the good news after we made it a priority to address residents’ pothole concerns.

At a meeting held on Tuesday (9 April), our Executive made a decision about how to allocate almost £1.5million of government funding to support local families.

We've been using a new technique that speeds up pothole repairs. It's more cost effective and eco-friendly, too, because it uses the rubber waste from end-of-life HGV tyres.
