Annual Council Tax Rates

The Council Tax charge is partly based on the value of a property and partly on the number of adult residents. The property element and the person element each amount to 50 per cent of the charge.

There are discounts, reliefs and exemptions depending upon eligibility, as well as Council Tax Support for people who are on a low income.

Apply for, or remove Exemption/Discount online via a My Erewash account.

The basic bill assumes that there are two adults resident in the property. If there are more than two, the charge is not increased, but if there are fewer than two, a discount can be granted.

This discount amounts to 25 per cent of the total charge, in other words, half of the personal element of the charge. You can also apply for, or remove Single Persons Discount using your My Erewash account.

Long Term Empty Properties

With effect from April 2023, the additional premium on properties that have been vacant (unoccupied and substantially unfurnished) for a period of 2 years or more is increasing.  The level of additional premium will depend on how long the property has been empty.

Properties that have been vacant for more than 2 years are charged an additional premium of 100% (200% charge), more than 5 years 200% (300% charge) and over 10 years 300% (400% charge). 

Between 2013/14 and 2022/23 an additional levy of 50% was charged in respect of long term empty properties.

The majority of funding for flood defence comes directly from the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra). However, under the new Partnership Funding rule not all schemes will attract full central funding. To provide local funding for local priorities and contributions for partnership funding the Regional Flood and Coastal Committees recommend through the Environment Agency a local levy. A change in the gross budgeted expenditure between years reflects the programme of works for both capital and revenue needed by the Regional Flood and Coastal Committee to which you contribute. The total Local Levy raised by this committee has increased by 2.0%The total Local Levy raised has increased from £2,223,637 in 2022/2023 to £2,268,110 for 2023/2024.
