Expenses of rural sanitary authority.
|
232. The expenses incurred by a rural sanitary authority in the execution of this Act shall be divided into general expenses and special expenses.
|
|
| |
General expenses, other than those chargeable upon owners and occupiers under this Act, shall be the expenses of the establishment and officers of the sanitary authority, and all other expenses not determined by this Act or the order of the Local Government Board to be special expenses.
|
|
| |
Special expenses shall be the expenses of the construction, maintenance, and cleansing of sewers in any contributory place within the district, the providing a supply of water to any such place, the providing repairing and cleansing public wells, the lighting where duly authorised, the charges or expenses arising out of or incidental to the possession of property transferred to the rural sanitary authority in trust for any district or contributory place, and all other expenses incurred or payable by the sanitary authority in or in respect of any contributory place within the district, and determined by the order of the Local Government Board to be special expenses.
|
|
| |
When the rural sanitary authority makes any sewers or provides any water supply or executes any other work under this Act for the common benefit of any two or more contributory places within its district, it may apportion the expense of constructing any such work and of maintaining the same, in such proportions as it thinks just, between such contributory places; and any expense so apportioned to any such contributory place shall be deemed to be special expenses legally incurred in respect of such contributory place.
|
|
| |
Ten or more ratepayers, or any number of persons liable to be rated to one-fifth part of the whole rate, of any contributory place, if aggrieved by any such apportionment, may send or deliver a memorial to the Local Government Board stating their grounds of complaint, and the said Board may, after due inquiry, make such order in the matter as to it may seem equitable, and the order so made shall be binding and conclusive upon all parties concerned.
|
|
| |
General expenses shall be payable out of a common fund to be raised out of the poor rate of . . . the district . . .
|
|
| |
Special expenses shall be a separate charge on some contributory place or places.
|
|
| |
The following areas situated in a rural sanitary district shall be contributory places for the purposes of this Act; (that is to say),
|
|
| |
(1.) The dispensary district:
|
|
| |
(2.) The electoral division:
|
|
| |
(3.) The townland:
|
|
| |
(4.) Such portion of any townland or townlands as may be determined by the Local Government Board:
|
|
| |
Provided, that the Local Government Board shall have power to determine on what area of charge being a contributory place, or consisting of contributory places, any special expenses shall be chargeable, whether incurred after the passing of this Act or still due in respect of works executed before the passing of this Act.
