Reduction in MPP’s 2016 assessment rates




KUCHING: The Padawan Municipal Council (MPP) has implemented the reduction in assessment rates for 2016 in pursuant to the approval by the State Cabinet to reduce the 2016 assessment rates for residential properties paying annual assessment rates of RM700 or below.

A press statement from the council yesterday said residential property owners paying annual assessment rates of RM50 or below are waived from paying assessment rate.

It added MPP has generated the reduced/discounted 2016 assessment rate bills. Ratepayers can obtain a copy of the discounted assessment rate bills at the counters of MPP at Kota Padawan and Batu Kawah New Township and at the Urban Transformation Centre (UTC) in Kuching.

The Council is now sending out the discounted assessment rate bills.

Ratepayers who have paid their 2016 assessment rate bills need not worry. For those who have paid the 1st half year 2016 assessment rate bill, the council will credit the overpayment to the 2nd half year 2016 rate bill.

Those who have paid both 1st half and 2nd half 2016 assessment rate bills or whole year 2016 assessment rate bills, the overpaid amount will be credited to the following year assessment rate bill.

Ratepayers who have overpaid the 2016 assessment rate may also apply for refund from the council, said the statement.
