Private agency to catch tax evaders
In order to conduct a survey of all properties in the city, officials of civic agencies propose to hire a private agency.
Property tax department officials have suggested that a private agency should be hired to prepare the database and find out which house owners are evading tax.
It is suggested that a team should be formed comprising a police official, a municipal employee and members of private agency.
MSA Khan, assessor and collector, said that the inclusion of police in the team is for the safety of corporation officials.
The team will prepare a report all properties that are evading tax. The team will inspect the area on weekends. If residents are not at home, zonal offices will be given their details and notices dispatched.
