Many plots (properties) directly or indirectly drain water into the municipality's sewer system. Are you a user of a plot (property) like this? Then you pay sewerage charges. The municipality uses the charge to take care of the sewerage system to ensure it works properly.

Who receives the tax assessment with sewerage charge?
There are two types of sewerage charge; one for owners and one for users.
Owners
It concerns owners of properties with a connection to the sewerage system. Directly or otherwise. You pay a fixed amount.
Users
Users are owners or tenants of a property. How much you have to pay depends on the volume of waste water to be taken away from your property a year.
Not connected to the sewerage system
Some plots (properties) in the municipality are not connected to the sewerage system. This occurs mainly in the outlying area. These plots (buildings) discharge water into a so-called IBA: an Individual Wastewater Treatment Unit. Do you have an IBA? Then you do not pay sewerage charges. However, the IBA must be registered and approved.

If you sell
Does your property change ownership? Then the person listed as the owner on January 1st has to pay the full amount of this charge. You will nog get a refund. The notary usually does settle part of the taxes with the new owner.
If you relocate
- Are you relocating to another municipality?
Then you will have to pay up to the moving date. This is only possible for the users share. We will send you a letter informing you about this. - Are you relocating within the municipality of Dalfsen?
Then nothing will change this year. Next year you will receive an assessment for your new address.
Is remission possible?
Are you unable to pay this charge? Then you can request remission for the users' share. But only if you drain less than 501m3 of water per year.
