Rates in Garff are set to rise by almost three times the rate of inflation.
At its last board meeting, the local authority rejected a proposal to raise rates by 7.5 per cent this year.
Replacing older streetlights, hosting an election and rising waste costs were all discussed as potential problems in the coming year.
Members voted unanimously to raise rates by seven per cent - December's inflation figure for the Island stood at 2.4 per cent.
