KERRY County Council has opened a period of public consultation in relation to next year’s Local Property Tax and is inviting submissions from the public, up to 5pm on September 14.
The Finance (Local Property Tax) Act, 2012 (As Amended), makes specific provision that Elected Members of a local authority may pass a formal resolution to vary the basic rate of the Local Property Tax for their administrative area by a percentage known as the local adjustment factor.
At the meeting set by Kerry County Council to consider this matter, the members may set a local adjustment factor within the range of +/-15% of the basic rate, or may decide not to adjust the basic rate.
