Demolitions, and other physical changes to a property, such as removing or filling in a
swimming pool, or damage caused by fire result in a reduction in assessment and
taxes.
Four properties reflect "no recommendation" in their property taxes which is shown as
having zeros in the corresponding columns. In general, "no recommendation" means
that either a reduction in assessment was not warranted or further property tax
reduction was not necessary as per the Assessment Act. If the property owner does not
agree with MPAC's recommendation, they have the right to appeal to.the Assessment
Review Board under subsection 7 of the Municipal Act, 2001.
