Infact yes.

Looks like more above inflation council tax rises then.
We're already paying a small fortune: Band C, no discount £1348 per year. It's a lot when you don't use much in the way of council services. And before anyone says we're being selfish I know that the council has to provide services for those less fortunate than us and also schools etc. It's still a lot of money though.
