... les conseils municipaux redoutent souvent de recourir davantage à l'impôt foncier général et préfèrent imposer une taxe particulière... Par «impôt foncier général», il faut entendre les sommes d'argent exigées de tous les contribuables et qui sont destinées de façon générale à subvenir aux charges de la municipalité (administration, dette, etc.). Il s'agit essentiellement des impôts fonciers prélevés sur l'ensemble des biens-fonds imposables ainsi que des patentes. Le terme «taxe foncière générale» est plus répandu dans l'usage, mais à proprement parler, il s'agit bien d'un impôt et non d'une taxe. 1, record 6, French, - imp%C3%B4t%20foncier%20g%C3%A9n%C3%A9ral
