Precept survey now closed

West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service (WYFRS) and West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Authority (WYFRA) have been seeking the views of the public over a possible increased precept in 2024. The rise would see any Band D council taxpayer paying an extra 3% precept on council tax bills to pay for fire service costs. The precept is the share of council tax that fire services get for the forthcoming financial year (2024/25).
