The Council tax charge is based on two adults sharing a property. If there are more than two adults, the amount payable will not increase.
Single Person Discount
You can claim single person discount if:
- you are the only adult aged 18 years or over living in the property
- the other adults living in the property are not counted for Council tax purposes. See below for more information.
The single person discount is 25% off your total council tax, water and sewerage bill.
