Tax collection dates

large tax arrears
Hay Council addressed a problem
of pressing urgency - tax arrears - al
its inaugural January 7, 1985 meeting.
Clerk Joan Ducharme reported
$84,000 in taxes is still owed for 1984.
almost double the amount she had
thought might accrue. Added to
$35,000 unpaid from the previous
year; and taxes still owing from 1982.
the township's tax arrears now total
$130,000.
A number of explanations were of-
fered, Wilder believes the situation
reflects the tough times being ex-
perienced in the farming community.
The possibility of switching to
quarterly payments was explored.
then discarded. Councillor John Elder
said he was not sure this would reduce
arrears, and would cause further
hardship for some. lie said often cash
crop farmers could more easily pay
$10,000 in November than $1,000 in
March. -
The requirement that 60 percent of
taxes be paid before farmers apply
for a tax rebate was also brought up.
Under the present system. only 50
percent of the tax bill is due inJune,
and rebate applicatipns are usually
sent bpfnre the fial tax due in
November.
Wilder also believes the township is
being used as a borrowing institution
The penalty for 1985 arrears was set
at 1 I , percent per month, or 15 per-
cent annually, at a special council
meeting on December 27. The pro-
vince dictates the amount a
municipality can charge, and the
municipality can not exceed the im-
posed ceiling.
"Our penalty is too low. Some com-
panies charge two percent per month.
compounded. No wonder we have tax
arrears", Wilder remarked.
Another factor is the quarterly
mandatory payment lathe boards of
education. The township is put in the
unenviable position of having to bor-
row to pay the school tax when its own
ratepayers don't pay on time.
After a lengthy discussion. council
passed a motion that_in 1985. 60 per-
cent of the taxes will be due by June
1, with the remaining 40 percent by
June 30. and' the remainder by
November 30.
"Even though this is an election
year, decisions have to be made in the
best interests of the township".
Wilder concluded.
