2 Report Chair and Directors September 11, 2014 Page 2 of 2 BACKGROUND/RATONALE: At its August 7, 2014 regular meeting, the Board gave three readings to Bylaw No. 2147, 2014 and the bylaw was subsequently forwarded to the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development for its approval. During that review, it was found that the bylaw required a revision. Section 6 of the August 7 th version established a maximum rate per thousand applied to the net taxable value of improvements only when, in fact, the Local Government Act requires that the maximum rate be applied to the net taxable value of land and improvements. Section 5 (Cost Recovery) of the bylaw has been corrected to reflect that the property value taxes imposed for this proposed service will be on the basis of the net taxable value of improvements only. With these necessary amendments to the bylaw, it would be appropriate for the Board to consider the recommendations offered. STRATEGC PLAN RELEVANCE: None FNANCAL CONSDERATON(S): Should this proposal receive elector assent, the new service will be included in the annual Financial Plan. COMMUNCATONS CONSDERATON(S): A synopsis of the bylaw will be included in all statutory advertising. Other opportunities for notifying residents of this proposed service and referendum will be pursued. OTHER CONSDERATON(S): Attached: Amended Bylaw No. 2147, 2014
