longer time for their
money.
Farrell said farmers
aren't asking for a free
ride. They are willing to
paytheir share of educa-
t ,on and '.so al service
taxes but °lily on the
property in which they
reside. That parcel of
property includes all
buildings, the home and
one acre of land. The rest
of the acreage is consid-
ered productive farm land
• which, : farmers feel,
should notbe taxed to the
same degree.
"I think we should be
treated like any other res-
ident that pays taxes.
Farm land doesn't need
the services that the conn
munity needs. It's not
that we want to get out of
paying our share."
Farrell said the process
taken to allow the rebate
program must be
"extremely ,expensive."
e.said" converting the
program to a tax system
would save money.
Proposed, in the OFA's,
five point' plan is a tax
system which would
remove "all of the people
services such as welfare
and education" from farm
land. It also proposes
assessing agriculture
property according to its
productive use. as farm
land, creating a new mill,
rate for farm land, and out •
buildings set at ;a value of
25 per cent of the resi-
dential rate and enacting
a long-term commitment
to compensate municipal-
ities that experience sig-
nificant revenue short-
falls as a result of farm
tax reform.
Farrell said reforming
the tax system is a big
issue right now for farm-
ers and the federation.
"1 have no idea how it's
all going to shake out."
