From 1 April 2014 there is a change to the way Council Tax discount for empty properties is calculated.

If the property has been unoccupied for more than a month, the owner will be subject to a full Council Tax bill.

Property owners should contact the Council to provide details if any of the following situations now apply:

• they no longer own the property,  or
• someone now lives in the property
