2013 TAXATION INFLUENCES REASSESSMENT • We are in the first 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 given immediately (2013 taxation year) which means an added stress for the 2013 taxation year. • Taxable Assessments for the Township of Madawaska Valley rose by 4.3% from $583,674,368 in 2012 to $609,884,737 for 2013. REVENUE SOURCES LIMITED – RISING COSTS • Other than a small number of grant opportunities, in addition to fees and service charges that are levied, other than through property taxation the Township has a very limited ability to raise revenues. • Operation costs continue to raise and the need to replace and rehabilitate existing capital assets without assistance of the upper levels of Government is proving difficult to maintain taxes from rising.

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 1.8%, from $137,000 in 2012 to $139,500. 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. Properties that experience up to a 0.8% 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.
