Community tax payment? (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

settlement

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'community' is the first definition.
(settlement is a kind of community)

'tax payment?' is the second definition.
'settlement' can be an answer for 'payment?' (thesaurus). I'm unsure of the 'tax' bit.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for settlement that I've seen before include "Community - payment" , "Colony - discharge of debt" , "deal" , "charge paid off with this" , "Community; agreement" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
