Take your high assessment to appeal board by Marge Rose
Provincial legislation returns BC to annual assessments. Notices arrive the first week of January each year. Market values across BC rose since the 1990 roll. Mayor Charles Lasser urges residents to seek review at the Court of Revision in Chetwynd if they believe the assessment is incorrect, noting some can face a 25 percent increase. More information to come via media and seminars, continued on page 14.
