Residents across Cheshire are set to pay an extra £10 a year on average to fund policing.
It comes after it emerged that the “burden” of funding is shifting from central Government to taxpayers in the area.
Nantwich councillors are to raise Council Tax for the town’s 5,200 households by 3.9%.
The rise will provide the council with a precept of £574,958 for the 2018-19 financial year.
Nantwich Town councillors voted overwhelmingly for a rise in council tax, which will see households pay an extra £67 a year. The council needs to bump up the precept by £360,000 in 2012-13 to help fund the takeover of key facilities like the Civic Hall, indoor market, toilets, allotments, and Brookfield Hall.
