Parcel Tax Roll Review Panel

TAKE NOTICE THAT the Parcel Tax Roll Review Panel for the District of Hudson’s Hope will hold its first sitting on Thursday, April 17, 2014 at 6:00 pm in the municipal office located at 9904 Dudley Drive, Hudson’s Hope.

When the sanitary sewer was extended to properties on Adams Street (formerly 111th Street) in the mid-1990s, a tax was levied that was based on the frontage of each parcel. . As re-set by the Municipal Finance Authority the frontage tax rate went from $1.487/ft to $1.381/ft until June 1, 2016 when the debt is paid. No changes have been implemented for 2014.

A bylaw to impose a parcel tax on owners of land for the electrical extension on Twelve Mile Road was amended in February of 2011 and states the annual rate shall be $493.16 of taxable frontage. The sum required to be raised annually by the parcel tax is $2, 958.96. No changes have been implemented for 2014.

The parcel tax roll is available for inspection at the municipal hall during its regular office hours.

A person may make a complaint to the Parcel Tax Roll Review Panel on one or more of the following grounds:

(a) there is an error or omission respecting a name or address on the assessment roll;

(b) there is an error or omission respecting the inclusion of a parcel;

(c) there is an error or omission respecting the taxable frontage of a parcel;

(d) an exemption has been improperly allowed or disallowed.

The Community Charter stipulates that a complaint must not be heard by the Parcel Tax Roll Review Panel unless written notice of the complaint has been given to the municipality at least 48 hours before the time set for its first sitting.

If you intend to appear before the Parcel Tax Roll Review Panel, you are required to advise the municipal office, in writing, of the cause for your complaint. If you have any questions regarding this matter please do not hesitate to contact me.
