Municipalities To Receive Advance Notice On Tax Reform
British Columbia municipalities will get early details of proposed reforms to the assessment and property tax system. The Assessment and Property Reform Act allows a flat residential tax alongside a percentage tax on assessed value, separate rates for residential land and improvements, streamlined assessment appeals, and certainty for industrial taxes. All amendments have Union of BC Municipalities backing and arise from the Property Tax Forum and Financing Local Government study. The act will be applied retroactively to enable immediate implementation.
