Chisinau, 30 December /MOLDPRES/- City councilors voted for setting new taxes in Chisinau. Thus, from 1 January 2021, the residents of the capital will pay the tax for sanitation.
On 29 December the Chisinau Municipal Council accepted setting a new tax for 2021 - sanitation tax. Also, the municipal councilors adjusted all local taxes on the territory of Chisinau municipality according to the inflation rate. In a video on social networks, Mayor Ion Ceban said that these changes are necessary because some local taxes have not been adjusted since 2004.
He referred to the sanitation fee. According to the mayor, this would generate an income to the municipal budget of about 100 million lei. "This money will be directed for the rehabilitation of the courtyards of the blocks of flats, arrangement of the afferent territory, repair of the roofs, stairs, doors at the entrance to the block, the windows etc.", Ceban said.
The sanitation fee is provided in the Fiscal Code of the Republic of Moldova but was not applied in Chisinau.
