Article 18 Evasion of street works expenses

Where the Department—

(a)

is empowered under this Order to recover the expenses of street works from any person; and

(b)

is unable by the exercise of its powers (other than powers conferred by this Article) to recover that sum,

then if a court of summary jurisdiction is satisfied, upon application made to it by the Department, that the premises having a frontage in respect of which those street works were executed were previously transferred for the purpose of evading the payment of those expenses, the court may make an order under this Article providing that, to such extent as the court making the order may determine, the Department may recover the expenses.
