Nice Council Votes to Increase Local Property Taxes

Nice from above

They just had a vote that passed to increase your taxes. The council tax ("Fonciere") will be going up next year by 6% and the tax on second homes ("Habitation") up by 4%. There was a lot of opposition but the Mayor Christian Estrosi pointed out that we have one of the cheapest local taxes in France, and that if households can afford €25/month for Netflix then an average increase of €12/month for locals is not too much to ask to keep all the essential services running.
