The local authority made the decision after a 'careful review' of finances
Malew Commissioners have announced there will be no rate increase for the fifth year in a row.
The local authority will keep it at 199 pence in the pound for the 2026 financial year following a 'careful review' of current and future finances.
It's expecting to see a reduction in rates income from the quarry, but believes this will be 'partly balanced' by the completion of new residential and industrial developments.
The commissioners also say they're 'committed' to improving public open spaces across the parish including additional sites within the Reayrt Mie development.
It adds that the total rates income is anticipated to be slightly lower than in the current financial year and new capital projects will be funded from reserves.
