KWIKWETLEM FIRST NATION

NOTICE OF PROPOSED LOCAL REVENUE LAWS AND INVITATION TO MAKE REPRESENTATIONS

 

THIS NOTICE is given pursuant to section 6 of the First Nations Fiscal Management Act (the FMA”).

 

Kwikwetlem First Nation (the First Nation”) proposes to enact the Kwikwetlem First Nation Property Taxation Amendment Law, 2024 and the Kwikwetlem First Nation Property Assessment Amendment Law, 2024 (together, the “Proposed Laws”).

DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED LAWS: The Proposed Laws are amendments to the existing Kwikwetlem First Nation Property Taxation Law, 2021 and the Kwikwetlem First Nation Property Assessment Law, 2021. The purpose of the Proposed Laws is to provide for a mechanism for the First Nation's annual assessment roll and annual taxation roll to be changed during a taxation year so that properties whose status change from taxable to exempt during the taxation year may be removed from those rolls. This would enable the First Nation to pro rate property taxes in respect of such properties for a portion of a taxation year, so that a taxpayer who ceases to hold property during a taxation year could be assessed property taxes for only the period that they hold the property.

 

WRITTEN REPRESENTATIONS: The Council of the First Nation invites written representations regarding the Proposed Laws. If you wish to make a written representation, your written representation must be received by the First Nation at the address set out below on or before 5:00 pm, November 7, 2024. Council will consider all written representations received in accordance with this Notice before enacting the Proposed Laws.

 

ADDRESS AND CONTACT PERSON: For further information or questions regarding the Proposed Laws or this Notice, or to obtain a copy of the Proposed Laws, please contact: Sue Lizotte, Director of Land Governance at 2-65 Colony Farm Road, Coquitlam, BC V3C 5X9, by telephone at 778 908 1250 or by email at sue@kwikwetlem.com.

 

Dated: September 20, 2024.
