BBC Radio Sheffield NewsPeople living in South Yorkshire could soon be paying more for their police force.
Image source, South Yorkshire PoliceA report to be scrutinised by the Police and Crime Panel later proposes a rise in the amount of council tax which goes to policing in the next financial year to the maximum allowed by government - a rise of 7.6%.
South Yorkshire's Police and Crime Commissioner, Dr Alan Billings, says a consultation over the plans has taken place and that 80% of residents said they would be willing to pay a bit more.
But they also made it clear they expected to see a more visible police presence within local communities and improvements to the 101 service.
The increase means households in Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham and Sheffield would pay an extra £12 per year if they live in a band D property, while homes in bands A and B would increase by between £8 and £9 from April.
Quote MessageIt has been clear that people do understand the difficulties we face in continuing to provide policing services against a backdrop of reductions in government funding but at the same time they expect to receive a good level of neighbourhood policing.

Analysis: McCall's dismissal will surprise manypublished at 13:40 Greenwich Mean Time 5 February 2018
Gareth Jones
BBC West Yorkshire SportWe heard earlier that Bradford City have sacked manager Stuart McCall after a run of six successive defeats in all competitions.
Image source, Getty ImagesThis will surprise many as Bradford City remain in the play-offs and still have a great chance of promotion - a remarkable achievement when you consider this squad isn't as good as last season's.
For others it will not be a surprise, after all it is six straight defeats.
But more of a factor in this decision is the fact that the relationship between McCall and the German owners had been strained for a long while.
Whether you agree with the decision or not, what is clear is this is a terribly sad day for Bradford City, as a club legend is dismissed.
