Taxes raise almost certain
After months of deliberation, council has all but approved the city’s municipal taxes for 2011.
All that’s left is one more reading of the tax bylaw to put the new rates into effect. That reading should take place at the next council meeting in May.
After debating back and forth over proposed increases, council finally decided these numbers.
Overall, the municipal mill rate would increase by 3.25 per cent to 19.75 per cent up from 19.13.
