Coventry City Council's Band D Council Tax for 2026/27 is approximately £2,280, comprising the core council charge, West Midlands Police precept, West Midlands Fire and Rescue Authority precept, and a smaller mayoral precept levied by the West Midlands Combined Authority to fund transport and regional investment projects. As a metropolitan unitary authority, Coventry has no separate county council layer. The council applied close to the standard 4.99% maximum increase for 2026/27 (2.99% core plus up to 2% for adult social care), consistent with most upper-tier English authorities.
