TALA WATER RATES
Please note that
following the reduction in the subsidy from the Water Board to cover the cost
of electricity to pump water, Tala Council had no option but to increase the
water rates slightly and these were included in the bills issued for the third
period of 2017 to those on Tala water.
First 20 tonnes
€0.92 per tonne
21-50 tonnes
€1.07 per
tonne
51 to 70 tonnes
€1.77 per tonne
71 tonnes and over
€2.07 per tonne
The standing charge of €7 remains unaltered.
In addition to the
increases shown above, please note that as a result of an EU Directive, a 5%
levy for 'environment cost' [based on consumption] plus VAT has been included on the bills. Until the necessary programming work has been
completed, please note that this tax is only mentioned in Greek [Περιβαλλοντικο τελος εντος κυβερνητικων υδατικων εργων: 0.05* [consumption] = [amount]].
This is shown in the box Consumption Breakdown underneath the
Total. Once the necessary programming
work has been completed the Environment Tax will be mentioned in this box, and
then under Transactions of Accounts [the box below] there will be shown Total,
Environment tax amount, and VAT [all in Greek and English] plus the final
amount payable.
