Reeve Explains Why
Assessments Are Up

Increases in recently released property assessment natices
have prompted a deluge of calls to Municipal hall during the
past two weeks. The increases vary in amounts and have been

established in accordance with
variance in the local property
sale pattern,

Reeve A. F. Goulet has issued
the following statement in reply
to the many questions being ask-
ed of Municipal officials:

“A number of people have con-
tacted the Reeve or one of the
Councillors and asked them to- ex-
plain why the assessment on their
property has increased over last
year’s assessment. Some of the
people are .quite puzzled to find
their assessments have been rais-
ed even though they have done
nothing to improve the property
during the year.

“The explanation for this is that
as land prices are rising and the
cost of erecting is rising the as-
sessed values are also rising. It is
mandatory that land and buildings
be assessed at 50 per cent of
actual value.

“As people continue to pay in-

creasingly higher prices for pro-j{*

perties in this area then the as-
sessments must be raised to meet

this condition. People in older|,
homes often complain that their}

properties are not rising in value,
but this complaint does not stand
up to investigation,

Prince Rupert, When the sales are
checked and analyzed it reveals
that the older homes are increas-
ing in value the same as more
modern homes.

“The often asked question, ‘How
much are my taxes going to be
for this year?’ cannot be answer-
ed at this time as the mill rate

REEVE GOULET
» . + explains

for 1966 will not be set until the
end of April when the Council has

hospital mill rates.

“Any person who deems his pro- | fam

perty improperly assessed and
enters a complaint to the Court
of Revision must be prepared to

argue his case on the value o

the property. The Court must de i
cide whether or not the propert; |

is fairly assessed in relation to
other properties, and the market
value is the standard of value on
which this is judged.

"] hope this brief explanation
will answer a lot of questions that
are in people’s minds at this par-
ticutar time.’
