I recently set up an AP on a nearby village's water tower and they are now sending me income tax papers saying I need file with their village. Our office is not in their village and I don't live in their village so I see no reason for filing. The only thing that ties me to them is the lone AP on their water tower. I am on 3 other city's water tower's in the same area and none of them have said anything about filing with them. The contract between the village and I states nothing about taxes or exchange of money for using the tower. 1 - Is income derived from clients residing in the village limits taxable as income? 2 - What about income derived from clients residing outside the village limits but running off the AP in the village limits? 3 - Even if so, why do the other ISP's that provide service to residents in the village not have to file income tax to this village? 4 - By filing income within the village I would technically be paying tax on income from all my towers generating revenue that have nothing to do with their tower. As far as I know there is no ordinance regarding internet service within the village in any way. Kurt Fankhauser WAVELINC P.O.
