The Rural Society of Azul filed a class action lawsuit. The tax already came into effect in January.

"There was no way to stop it": a Buenos Aires mayor created a new rate and the producers presented an injunction. "On the same bill where the road tax is paid, they included the fee for Essential Services. It can be paid separately but for that you have to go to the municipality and ask them to split the bill. It is a hassle," said the director of the Argentine Rural Society.
