​District Governance

District Administration and Representation in Congress
The district is administered by a Governor who is elected by the people for a term of four years. The Governor has a seat in the House of Representatives (The Congress of Mount Vema) where he/she works to protect the interest of the district. 

When district elections take place, the district neighbourhoods also elect their Representatives for Congress for a term of four years.

Southland District Tax: 900 golles per year
Levy on the District of Southland property. District Tax is a taxation system introduced before the construction of the city of Mount Vema is completed to help off-plan buyers (owners of Mount Vema title plans) to better manage their long-term financial plans.
​
Liability for District Tax
The occupiers of a property are liable, regardless of tenure, or the owners if the property is unoccupied, except if the property is a 'house in multiple occupation', in which case the landlord is liable for paying the District Tax.
