On June 3rd, Isesaki City announced that it had mistakenly debited 133 accounts totaling 1,396,900 yen for light vehicle tax from people eligible for exemptions, such as people with disabilities.
This was because city staff in charge did not take the necessary steps to stop direct debits from the accounts of those eligible for exemptions. According to the tax collection department, the mistaken deductions were made on the due date of June 2nd, and the reason behind this was that the continued exemption list was overlooked. The city will notify those eligible and will proceed with refunds. The problem came to light after an inquiry from a taxpayer.
