This program will help farm property owners to pay their municipal and education taxes. Farm property owners will receive $20,000,000 in special assistance from the Government of Ontario. This amounts to 25 percent of the net municipal taxes on eligible farm property. To be eligible, the property owner must live in Ontario. Also, if the farm property is less than 11 acres, it must have yielded $2,000 or more in gross income during the year. Cheque's and information leaflets are being mailed out by the Department of Municipal Affairs to every eligible farm owner.
