The Council for this Postcode is Highland Council, who are a Unitary authority. This means that they are responsible for providing education, libraries and maintaining highways as well as normal council duties such as council tax, rubbish collection, housing, environmental health and planning.
You can visit the website for Highland at the following link Highland.Highland Council is responsible for collecting council tax. This will vary depending on which council tax band the property falls within. You can check the council tax band at the gov.uk website.
Once you know the council tax band you can view how much Highland charge for that band by visiting the The Council Tax section of their website.
When moving house to a new post code it is worth checking out what will be built in the neighbourhood.

Visit the local planning department and search for planning applications in this postcode granted within the last three years or still awaiting a decision. This will give an indication of what could still be built.
Libraries are the responsibility of Highland council
