Ottawa area farmers receive drought tax relief offer
Ottawa | There is help for farmers in the Cumberlandward andother rural portions of the National Capital region sucked dry in the past summer drought. Ottawa city council gave the green light to a property tax relief proposal dealing with farmlands in the rural wards. The plan calls for an amendment to the municipal farm grant program to allow an extension on property tax due dates. “Last month,” stated Mayor Jim Watson in a news release, “I asked staff to explore all options to provide support and extend a helping hand to farmers who are experi- encing economic hardship as a result of the severe summer drought.” Under the amended program any farmer who is registered for 2012 will have an ex- tension on the final 2012 property tax pay-
ment from Dec. 6 of this year to April 25 next year. The interim 2013 property tax due date is also extended to April 25, 2013. Also 2012 participants in the farm grant program will receive a grant to cover any penalties and fees that would be normal for the period from the original property tax due date of Dec. 6, 2012 to the revised due date in April 2013. The farm grant program is a property tax mitigation process that allows eligible farm- ers to defer final property tax bill payments to December instead of the usual due date in June. The program provides grants to eligible participants to cover the due date penalty fees. The extension of the December due date to April of next year is a simple revision of the existing program process.
