A 'cost of living' rebate that would benefit thousands of homes in Stockport has been proposed ahead of a key budget meeting this week.
The Liberal Democrats - the largest group on the council - have put forward plans for a £15 ‘payment to all households in council tax bands A-D.
Funded through reserves, it is broadly equivalent to the proposed increase in the ‘general’ element of council tax and would benefit more than 100,000 homes - or 82pc of those in the borough.

It comes after the Labour administration put forward proposals for a 1pc hike in the general element of council tax, and a 2.5pc increase in the adult social care precept (1.5pc of which is deffered from last year).
That makes for a 3.5pc rise, which increases to 4pc once Andy Burnham's mayoral and policing precepts are taken into accoutn.
It would mean average 'Band D' properties facing a hike of £83.25 over the 2022/23 finacial year. Bills would begin to go up from April.
