Circular pago de la contribucion de agua a los edificios del Estado

Abstract

The image contains news about the circular of March 1, 1836 by the Secretary of the Treasury of New Granada, which seeks to clarify a misunderstanding regarding the payment of taxes for the supply of water to public buildings. It is established that, according to the organic law of 1834, the State is exempt from paying taxes, including payment for water from public aqueducts. This circular is issued in response to a news article published in a newspaper that stated that the State should pay for this service. The main objective is to communicate to the relevant authorities, such as the director of the Mint and the postmaster general, that the State is exempt from this payment and that they should adjust their records accordingly.
