BE IT ENACTED BY THE COUNTY COUNCIL FOR MONTGOMERY
COUNTY, MARYLAND, that—

Section 1. Section 11-13 (a) (1), Chapter 31, title "Health and Sani-

lish by ordinance and provide for the administration of a special service
charge area to be known as the "Refuse Collection District." All service
charges imposed on property within the said "Refuse Collection District"
shall be collected in the manner in which ordinary taxes are now or here-
after may be collected under the provisions of the general and local laws
of the State and County; and, upon default in the payment of any service
charge, the property against which such service charge has been made
shall be sold at tax sale in the same manner as real property is sold for
non-payment of ordinary taxes;

such refuse under such regulations as to charges and methods as they
deem advisable;
