Port St Mary

The rate for homes in Port St Mary is to increase by 3 pence in the pound.

Port St Mary Commissioners agreed to set the rate at 300 pence in the pound.

Chairman of the Commissioners, Robbie Cooil, says the increase was restricted to 1% despite increased costs and a reduction in Government funding.

The budget for the coming year will allow for investment in schemes around Port St Mary
