st tribune november 1 1995 p 3 council rejects notion of prepaid taxes a proposal by a ward 1 councillor ivanka bradley to have businesses pay taxes in advance was given a thumbs down by lead ers of the towns two commercial associa tions whitchurchstouffville chamber of com merce president rob shannon along with bia chair sandra stronach say bradleys scheme would act as a deterrent to bringing much needed new business to town ttiey feel council should be working towards low ering business taxes as part of an overall plan to broaden the commercial tax base bradley called for a business tax collection review tuesday after council was asked to write off 15000 in unpaid taxes from 43 ft businesses she suggested future businesses provide the town with personal guarantees or letter of credit so the town could collect taxes in the event of bankruptcy 1 think it would be foolish to think we could get businesses to pay their taxes in advance said shannon anything the politicians want to do to minimize losses is good but wed have no success drawing new businesses to town if they had to pay their taxes up front i dont think very many busi nesses would last long if they asked for pay ment before goods and services were received shannon suggested the town might offer a discount to businesses if they chose the option of paying taxes in advance golden eagle art gallery proudly presents

stronach she said the town could look into asking businesses for month ly installments instead of the current lump sum method i stronach agreed with bradleys contention that its not fair for residents to have to pick up the tab when businesses default on their taxes but she argued that a broader business tax base an attempt to tax businesses run out of private homes and a review of the tax sys tem with an eye towards lowering taxes across the board would be preferable to tax ing businesses in advance business taxes are plenty high in stouffville for what we get christmas is coming mj an
