Council Tax is set by your North Wiltshire
District Council to help pay for local services such as
policing and refuse
collection. The amount you pay will vary depending on
where you live and the value of your home.
Each home is placed on a valuation list in one of eight valuation
bands, from A to H. The list will show only the band to which
your home has been allocated, not its actual value.
Valuations are carried out by the listing officer at the
Valuation Office Agency (part of the Inland Revenue), not
your local council. The basis of valuation is the capital
value of each dwelling arrived at by estimating the amount
it could have been sold for on the open market on 1 April
1991. This valuation date is the same for all properties.
The range of values, based on 1991 prices,
which each band covers is as follows for England: Band range
of values (at 1 April 1991) - [A - up to £40,000][B
- over £40,000 and up to £52,000][C - over £52,000
and up to £68,000][D - over £68,000 and up to
£88,000][E - over £88,000 and up to £120,000][F
- over £120,000 and up to £160,000][G - over £160,000
and up to £320,000][H - over £320,000]
