A public consultation will take place on 7 April at Shirebrook Leisure Centre to give people the opportunity to look at plans for the new crematorium.

The consultation will take place between 12pm and 4pm but the boards will be displayed all weekend and feedback forms are available to fill in if you can't make it to at those times.

New tax checks for scrap metal dealers and taxi drivers are coming into force from April 2022.

The tax check will take place when people renew their licences to drive taxis, drive and operate private hire vehicles, or deal in scrap metal.

This is a small addition to the requirements licensing authorities already put in place. The straightforward online check should only take a few minutes, typically once every 3 years.

The tax check is simply to confirm that the applicant is appropriately registered for tax.

We have been made aware that some residents have been receiving phone calls and emails asking for their bank details so the Council Tax Energy Rebate can be paid.

Please note that this is a scam as we do not request bank details in this way. Please do not give any bank details out and if you receive an email or phone call of this manner please contact us on 01246 242424 and ask for our Council Tax Department.
