Some Cheshire East residents won’t have to pay any council tax from next April following changes being made to the support scheme.
At present people in receipt of benefits such as jobseeker’s allowance or income support get 75% of their council tax paid under the council tax support scheme.

Plans to build a joint police and fire station in Crewe have been axed after it was discovered the project would have cost taxpayers £18 million.
Members of the Cheshire Fire Authority unanimously voted at a meeting today (September 18) to move forward with plans to build a station solely for the fire service instead.
Nantwich residents will have council tax bills frozen for at least the next two years, Cheshire East Council has agreed.
The local authority is the first in the country to announce a two-year freeze.
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
