Cheshire East residents look set to see an increase of 4.43% in the amount they pay towards policing.
If the increase suggested by Police and Crime Commissioner John Dwyer is ratified by the police and crime panel on Friday (February 4) that will mean an extra £10 a year on the police precept for a band D council tax payer across the county.

Council tax payers across Cheshire could be asked to stump up more cash to help fund policing.
Cheshire Police and Crime Commissioner John Dwyer has launched a survey seeking views of residents on raising the police precept – the component of Council Tax which helps fund Cheshire Constabulary – by 83p a month.
Nantwich Town Councillors have voted for a 12.5% decrease in council tax for 2022-23.
The town council’s precept was agreed at a council meeting on Thursday, and comes after a controversial move last year to raise it by more than 40%.
Dear Editor,
Letter sent to Nantwich Town Council.
I have examined the summary of the Capital and Revenue Budget for 2021/ 22 and would make the following general observations.
Dear Editor,
Nantwich has the highest parish precept in Cheshire East = £122.66 for a Band D household.
This is going up by 42.5% for 2021/2022 = £52.13 = £174.79.
Nantwich residents are facing a 42.5% rise in their Town Council tax base after councillors voted through a controversial budget plan tonight (December 10).
It means all properties facing a £1 per week increase in the town council portion of their bill from April 2021.

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.
