2014 Municipal Tax Structure

Town of Roddickton-Bide Arm Municipal Taxes 2014docx

In previous years, residential tax bills would have been itemized as follows:
• Residential Property Tax
• Water and Sewer Tax
The garbage collection fee was included within the above taxes.

To be more transparent, going forward the bill will be itemized as follows:
• Residential Property Tax
• Water and Sewer
• Garbage Collection Fee

To accommodate the garbage collection fee being billed as a separate item:
1. the mil rate for residential properties has decreased to 7.25 mils from 8.5.
2. the minimum residential property tax rate has been reduced from $ 375 to $ 285

Garbage collection fee is determined by Northern Peninsula Regional Service Board and not the Town Council.
