These will be the most expensive Leeds areas for council tax after proposed 2021 rise

Leeds City Council has proposed a 1.99% rise in core council tax for all wards from April 2021, with an additional 3% rise to pay for adult social care.

If the plan is approved, most of the city will see Band D rise from £1,711.15 to £1,796.54. But some towns and villages in Leeds pay an extra surcharge on top of what is owed to the council, police and fire - this is called a parish 'precept'. These will be the 10 most expensive areas in Leeds for council tax if the proposed 4.99% rise goes ahead in April, based on the 2019/20 rate for Band D houses. How does your area compare?
