You can visit the website for Manchester District at the following link Manchester District.

How much is the Council Tax?

Manchester District 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 Manchester District charge for that band by visiting the The Council Tax section of their website.

Planning Applications

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.
