  14. TAX IMPACT ON $100,000 ASSESSMENT

  15. 2014 TAXATION INFLUENCES REASSESSMENT • We are in the second year of an updated four year phase-in Property Assessment update which updated from a 2008 base year to a 2012 base year. • Assessment reductions are not phased-in in the same manner as assessment increases are, total reduction was given immediately (during the 2013 taxation year) which added stress to the 2013 taxation year but continues as Requests for Reconsideration are being processed. • Taxable Assessments for the Township of Madawaska Valley rose by 5.33% from $609,884,737 in 2013 to $642,421,623 for 2014. REVENUE SOURCES LIMITED – RISING COSTS • Other than a small number of grant opportunities, in addition to fees and service charges that are levied, property taxation is the only means that the Township has to raise revenues. • Operation costs continue to rise; the need to replace and rehabilitate existing capital assets without assistance of the upper levels of Government; and the implementation of the Township Asset Management Plan (a requirement of obtaining future Provincial funding) are making it very difficult to maintain taxes from rising.

  16. DISTRIBUTION OF 2014 RESIDENTIAL TAX BILL(based on $100,000 residential assessed value) General Administration Protection Service Transportation Services Municipal Properties Waste Disposal Services Social & Family Services Library Services Planning, & Dev’t Services Parks/Recreation/Cultural Services • $ 0.0644 • $ 0.1061 • $ 0.2241 - $ 0.0022 • $ 0.0138 • $ 0.0003 • $ 0.0137 • $ 0.0169 • $ 0.0545 $ 0.4960 $ 0.183(per tax dollar)) $ 0.496 $ 0.321 (per tax dollar)) From every tax dollar received, $0.496 remains with the municipality

  24. 2014 CURBSIDE AREA RATE RESERVE FUND STATUS

  25. INCREASED ASSESSMENT INCREASED PROPERTY TAXES As previously noted for the 2013 taxation year, the average Single Family Residential Assessment as determined by the OPTA increased by 3.23%, from $139,500 to $144,000 for 2014. The percentage assessment increases for individual properties will vary therefore each property will be impacted differently, some less while others more. Keep in mind that properties, including Seasonal Recreational/Waterfront, that are in other property classifications will experience different impacts dependent upon the assessment increase. Residential properties paying the Transfer Station area rate with up to a 2.02% assessment increase, and those who pay the Curbside Pickup area rate that experience up to a 1% assessment increase, will see their property taxes remain the same or decrease. Any assessment increases above this amount will see increases dependent upon the value of the property increase.
