running a municipality is very difficult to achieve in a region like york where farm industrial commercial and residential properties are all mixed together in one area property taxes bear heavily on those who own a lot of real estate and farmers are at the top of that category those with very little property use all the same services at the same cost to the municipality but pay a great deal less for them special assessment rates for farm land relieved the situation some a few years ago but still farm taxes are based on the assessed value of the house farm buildings and land while a rural residents taxes are set by the house and lot value alone the farm tax reduction program by the ontario government was set up two years ago to solve this problem under it full taxes are still paid by farmers to the municipality but a percentage is rebated by the province the amount of the rebate and the method are both changed this year fifty percent of the tax bill on farms will be rebated on 1973 taxes since total farm assessments often break out at about 50 percent for buildings and 50 percent for land this really means that farmers will be paying taxes based on the market value of their the definition of a farm is very important now the first require ment is that the land be assessed as farm land this can be checked with the assessment office or with the clerk of the municipality the second point is that the land is used as part of a farm operation that produces at least 2000 in farm products in a normal year traffic report stouffville stouffvilles longawaited traffic study could

owners of land assessed as farm land it will ask for information on the- farm income as well as the taxes paid and these will go out in the next month or two the program is aimed at getting the situation right for farms and will not benefit speculatively held land because all rebates will have to be paid back if the land goes out of agriculture before 1973 farm report aa wall agricultural
