Devon County Council has increased its share of council tax by two per cent, which will increase the average bill for a Band D home by £22 a year.
Devon county councillors have agreed to a 2 per cent rise in council tax for the next financial year - as well as budget cuts of 27 million pounds.
The leader of the council says the national government are to blame, not local Conservatives.
