Mayor opposes expanded tax powers for municipalities
Mayor Ray Bryant sharply opposes giving municipalities authority to levy property transfer, amusement, tourism, vehicle taxes, development levies, non-residential split mill rates, and new regional service agency taxes. He notes citizens already fund most costs and warns against adding tax burdens while urging local flexibility if provincial decisions allow it. The Ministers Council proposals await provincial decision.
