Paterson Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer Subject: 2004 Final Tax Due Dates for Commercial, Industrial and Multi- Residential Realty Tax Classes and Tax Rates Recommendation: It is recommended that report CS 28-04 of the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer be received; and that: the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer be authorized to issue the FINAL 2004 Tax Bills for Commercial, Industrial and Multi-residential properties with a due date of October 15th, 2004; the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer be authorized to make any changes or undertake any actions necessary, including altering the due dates, in order to ensure the tax billing process is completed and in order to comply with Provincial Regulations; the necessary By-law attached to this report be read three times and approved; and, the appropriate officials of the City of Pickering be given authority to give effect hereto, Executive Summary: Adoption of the above recommendations and passing the attached By-law provides for the final 2004 tax billing for non-residential tax classes (commercial, industrial and multi-residential) and provides for the establishment of the non-residential property tax rates for 2004. Schedule A of the attached By-law also consolidates all of the City's 2004 tax rates and final due dates. -- ,~T. r 200a Tax Due Da',es for .... ,~e~%¢' ~ a,, U;asses and Tax ~ates Financial Implications: The attached By-law is for the FINAL billing of 2004 property taxes for commercial, industrial and multi-residential properties. This billing of final property taxes will raise approximately $23.1 million for the City, Durham Region and School Boards. Tax bills for the Residential tax classes were issued on June 14, 2004 with due dates of July 16th and September 29th. Background: The City of Pickering will soon be in a position to issue the find 2004 property tax bills in accordance with the capping provisions of Bill 140, Continued Protection For Property Taxpayers Act, passed by the Province on December 4, 2000 and implemented through various Regulations. This legislation was put in place to limit assessment reform related increases to 5% per year on commercial, industrial and multi-residential properties. Under this legislation, property owners facing increases due to property assessment reform had their increases "capped" (reduced). Conversely, those properties experiencing decreases were limited to that permitted under the legislation. This meant that taxes have to be "clawed back" from those experiencing decreases to fund the loss of revenue resulting from the capped increases. The funding of the capping protection is "paid for" on a Region wide basis. The Region of Durham acts like a banker in this process. In other words, the total cost of the capping protection for example, the commercial tax class is paid for by the other commercial properties throughout the Region by having a portion of their related property tax decrease withheld (clawed back). As part of the Region wide process, City of Pickering uses a Provincial database program called "Online Property Tax Analysis" or OPTA to' verify non-residential assessment data. Every municipality within Durham Region uses the OPTA system. The OPTA system became operational in mid April and taxation staff worked throughout the spring verifying the data and investigating the discrepancies. Assessment Review Board decisions and Minutes of Settlement were incorporated into the capping calculations up to May 7th, which was the cut-off date for these changes. After this date the area municipalities would have completed their analysis of the assessment and taxation data. Schedule A of the attached By-law lists the 2004 tax rates used by the City, School Boards and Region of Durham for the calculation of property taxes. The 2004 residential tax rates were approved by Council on June 7th, 2004 and all of the 2004 tax rates and final due dates are presented in one schedule for presentation and consolidation purposes. For this year, the City of Pickering issued an interim tax bill to these realty property tax classes with two installment dates (February 26th and April 29th). The proposed final installment date of October 15th, provides these tax classes with some additional time to pay their tax bill. Table One below, provides a breakdown of the final billing dates for the non-residential tax classes from 2000 to 2004. ~.,~c.:-¢. .... -~-' 'z Da~e: September 1 200~z ~.,.,~..~..~.~ .... i~,~.~. :2,~64 Finai Tax Due Dates for C~mmerc,ah" ' ~n~us,' " "~,a~ and Viuiti- ?~ge :3 ;Residenq-2i Reait¥ 7ax Ciasses and 7,ax Rates Table One Non-Residential Final Billing Dates Year Number of Date installments 2000 One 2001 One 2002 One 2003 One 2004 One October 13, 2000 October 29, 2001 October 29, 2002 October 15, 2003 October 15, 2004 As Table One indicates, the proposed 2004 final due date closely follows the pattern established during the last four years.
