धारा 148 · Fees may be charged for certain licences, permission, etc

(1) When any licence is granted under this Act, or when permission is given thereunder for making any temporary erection or for putting up any projection, or for the temporary occupation of any public street or other land vested in the Council, the authority granting or giving such licence or permission may charge a reasonable fee for the same as determined by the by-laws: Provided that, when permission is given for putting up a projection, the authority giving such permission may charge every year a recurring fee until the projection is removed. (2) The Council may charge a higher fee by way of penalty for any erection or projection, or for the use or occupation of any public street or other land vested in the Council, by any person without its permission or licence. Such fee shall be leviable irrespective of any other penalty or liability to which the person liable to pay the same may be subject under any other provisions of this Act or any other law for the time being in force. The rates of such higher fees shall also be determined by the by-laws. CHAPTER IXA 3[***] CHAPTER X RECOVERY OF MUNICIPAL CLAIMS
