Included in your Council Tax bill are charges for your:
- water supply services
- waste water collection services
These services are provided by Scottish Water. Public owned Scottish Water invests every penny into protecting the nation's resource. It is your water, for your life as it is owned by the Scottish public. The charges you pay allow Scottish Water to operate and improve:
- water and waste water services
- infrastructure in communities across Scotland
These charges apply to every household which has a connection to the public water supply and/or the public waste water network.
These charges are based on your Council Tax Band shown on your bill, even if you receive a Council Tax Reduction. Some Council Tax exemptions and discounts will also apply. This includes single occupancy or if you are a student.
For more details about charges see Scottish Water.

Low income households
If you are a low income household you may be eligible for the Council Tax Reduction Scheme. This doesn’t cover water and sewerage charges, you must pay these yourself.
If you are a low income household already in receipt of Council Tax Reduction, you don’t need to reapply. Any entitlement to reduction will be in your Council Tax annual demand notice.
Setting Council Tax bands
The Ayrshire Valuation Joint Board decides which Band your home falls into. They are independent from North Ayrshire Council.
To ask, or appeal, about the banding of your house, contact Ayrshire Valuation Joint Board.
