The full explanation

Unless the Lease Contract states otherwise, the Tenant is responsible for paying all fees and taxes owed to government entities related to the use of the property. This typically includes utility charges and municipal fees associated with occupancy. Additionally, if the property is subleased, the Tenant must pay any fees or taxes prescribed for that specific sublease arrangement. This clear division of financial responsibility ensures that the costs of using public infrastructure and services are borne by the party actually inhabiting and benefiting from the premises.

This is general information from the website library. Confirm current rules, fees and property details with the relevant authority before acting.
