Abstract

This Ordinance of the Corporation of Hamilton, in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 20 and 22A of the Hamilton Sewerage Act 1917 and sections 23 and 38 of the Municipalities Act 1923, specifies a sewerage tax, which shall be charged, levied and collected in respect of every sewerage district valuation unit at an owner's rate. As soon as practicable after the commencement of each tax period, the Treasurer shall serve on each taxpayer a demand note for the sewerage tax payable by him for that tax period in respect of each sewerage district valuation unit of which he is the owner at the relevant date. The Corporation may, upon application being made, grant a total or partial exemption from payment of sewerage tax, or a deferment of liability to pay the whole or part of sewerage tax. No sewerage tax shall be charged, levied or collected on any valuation unit exempt from municipal rates under any provision of law.
