Rates in Castletown will increase later this year.
Castletown commissioners have accnounced a 6p increase - bringing the rates to 304p.
Meanwhile, the fixed refuse charge for domestic properties will also see a £10 increase to £145.
Chairman of the authority, David Parnell, says whilst extensive discussion was given to holding rates at the existing level with an adjustment to the refuse levy, following a vote the majority of the board felt this would simply defer an inevitable and more significant increase into future years.
