Employees in Azzano received a total of 8,104.88 euros in bonuses for uncovering property tax evasion, with the full cost to the municipality reaching 10,761.25 euros including charges. The beneficiaries' names remain confidential in a reserved attachment. The incentive, based on a 2020 regulation and law 145 of 2018, is funded by previous year's tax recovery revenues. Distribution follows set criteria, with individual bonuses capped at 15 percent of annual gross salary, and the municipal secretary must sign off to prevent conflicts of interest. The 2025 plan set specific recovery targets, including minimum notice numbers and assessment thresholds. The tax service head reported results on August 7, leading to this payment for staff involved in the IMU and Tari collection efforts.
