TO DEVELOP REFERENCE JURISDICTION TRANSITION PLAN AND TAXPAYER MEETING
DECEMBER 3, 2021 from 2-3 pm
To: Campbell River Indian Band Taxpayers
NOTICE is given that the Campbell River Indian Band (the “First Nation”) intends to develop a reference jurisdiction transition plan in order to transition to setting tax rates on Campbell River Indian Band reserve lands that are identical to those in the City of Campbell River. The First Nation will hold a meeting, open to all current taxpayers of the First Nation, to review and discuss the First Nation’s reference jurisdiction transition plan.
The reference jurisdiction transition plan will:
1. Provide the justification for transitioning from the current property taxation mill rates to rates that are identical to the rates that apply in the City of Campbell River.
2. Set out how the tax rates will immediately match the City of Campbell River’s rates in each property class beginning in the 2022 taxation year.
