WATER RATES FOR THOSE ON TALA WATER

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.
