The 74th amendment of the Constitution and the recommendations of the Thirteenth Finance Commission strengthened the status of Urban Local Bodies as institution of self-Government, who are empowered to levy and collect Holding Tax under Odisha Municipal (OM) Act 1950 and Odisha Municipal Rule 1953 from the owners\/tenants of the holdings within these municipal jurisdictions. The occupiers of properties (holdings) within municipal areas are required to pay holding tax on the basis of Annual Rental Value of the property which is to be assessed by the Valuation Organization, a wing of Housing and Urban Development Department of the Government of Odisha. The Valuation Organisation is a statutory creation by the Odisha Act, (16 of 1968 read with section 142 of OM Act 1950) with a view to ensure transparency and uniformity in determination of Annual Rental Value\/tax for the holdings in the municipal areas of the State. There is a Council for each Urban Local Body, who in its meeting expressly called for the purpose, has to determine the percentage of Annual Rental Value at which the holding tax was to be realized. At present holding tax is collected in all 114 urban local bodies (Five Municipal Corporations, 46 Municipalities and 63 Notified Area Councils) functioning in the State.<\/p>\n<h1>Community Development Service<\/h1>\n<p>Community Development Service is working to reduce poverty and vulnerability of the urban poor households of Sonepur Municipality .
