Further Details of Ontario Tax Rebate Outlined by Department Municipal Affairs Minister W. Darcy McKeough this week an- nounced two developments in the new system of residential property tax reductions for On- tario's 1,700,000 home -owners and 800,000 tenants: 1—Regulations spelling out the method for all tenants to benefit for all of 1968. 2—The beginning of payments from the province to munici- palities, reimbursing them for the amount of the tax reductions allowed by them to owners. The tax reduction system was approved by the legislature last month. Its purpose was to ease the burden of municipal and school taxes on residential prop- erty, to the benefit of all those who bear these taxes both home -owners and tenants. Mr. McKeough said the prov- ince will pay an estimated $150 million in these tax reductions in 1968, amounting to 121/z per cent of all residential property taxes. Owners get the reductions on their municipal tax bills. Landlords are required to pass on the full reductions to tenants. The regulations state that a tenant who occupies a rented house or apartment all year, or who moves out after June 30, is to receive his tax reduction allowance with no need to ap- ply. The onus is on the land- lord or his agent to pass it on to, him. BLit if a tenant has moved out before June 30 of this year, he should apply to his landlord for the reduction In that case, the landlord is required to make the payment only if he has re- ceived an application from a tenant. All payments must be made by December 31. "The purpose of this method is to make it practical for ten- ants to secure the tax reduc- tion allowance for all of 1968," Mr. McKeough said. "If a tenant has moved out in the first six months of this year, the landlord does not nec- essarily know where he has gone. Since this system has come into force in mid -year, it would not be desirable to re- quire a landlord to trace a ten- ant who. has moved out. For the rest of this year— and for 1969 and thereafter— the tenant will not be required to do anything in order to col- lect his reduction. It will be the responsibility of the land- lord to pay his tenant the tax reduction allowance." Payments for 1968 must be by cheque or cash. A tenant is entitled to the benefit of the tax reduction in the proportion of the part of the year that he pays rent. For instance, if he rents a dwelling for six months, he should re- ceive one-half of the reduction. to tenant is not permitted to assign or waive his right to the amount of the tax reduction al. lowance. The regulations provide that beginning next year, a tenant and his landlord or agent may agree in the first month of oc- cupancy, to have the tax reduc- tion allowance passed on by way of a reduction in the monthly rent. By whatever method is used, the tax reduction allowance in future years will have to be made by December 31 or within 30 days of the end of the ten- ancy, whichever comes first. The province will reimburse a municipality for the amount of the tax credits allowed to owners, on the basis of the number ,of instalments of taxes levied after the adoption of the estimates. For instance, if there are three such instalments, one- third of the amount claimed will be paid as close to the date of each instalment as possible. These payments will commence to be paid in July. ST. JOSEPH and DRYSDALE Alfred Ducharme, Correspondent Visitors at the home of the Forsythe's of Bayview summer resort over the week -end were from. Detroit, Mr. and Mr. Reg Teaning, also Mr. and Mrs Vic Hicks. It being a beautiful day on Sunday last, the folks from Detroit enjoyed themselves. On Sunday last Mr. and Mrs. Fred Ducharme were picked up by their son, L. Pierre, of Mount Carmel, to spend the day with him, latter being an employee of the New Venice Corporation where they have well near three thousand acres of land in mixed crop—wheat, oats, barley, corn, all of it well taken care of by experienced farm labor under the instructions of their fore- man, an authoriy on farm work. All of the crop was good and we believe above standard. All work is done by tractor power, and the visit through the large tract of land was enjoyed by yours truly. This property is a few miles south of Grand Bend. Farmers are almost completed with their seeding, buckwheat being the latest and not too many put any out. Other crops are coming along fairly good and the occasional rain has helped the growth. Few farm- ers in this surrounding have any fall wheat, at one time it being their cash summer crop. But of later years due to the high expenses for planting and al- most a year of their money in- McADAM'S TV Business or Residence 236-4094 ZURICH • LEONARD Home Appliances • ROGER'S MAJESTIC Sales and Service • PHOTO SUPPLIES Cameras, Films, Photo Finishing All Service Done by GOVERNMENT CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN 1. vested before •their returns. Be- sides, their returns have been much under par for wheat, so sometimes a farmer has the right to wonder why there can- not be some way to adjust prices to compare with their expenses of growing wheat.
