Our property taxes have gone up by about 25% over the past two years - about 10% last year and the balance this year. I realize that the assessed value of property in Fernie has gone up over the past few years, but I would expect the mill rate to be adjusted to make the overall tax bill about the same, or perhaps to reflect a small increase. What are other people's tax bills like? Is everyone seeing an increase, or are some people seeing a lower tax bill this year? Does anyone know where the biggest changes in assessed value were, or was the increase in assessment across the board? Thanks! |

The City's mill rate has been adjusted for a small increase. BUT the provinces share, the hospital share, the education share and the RDEK share have not been adjusted.

Just checked back and mine have only gone up 52 bucks or about 2% which seems pretty good to me. Can't decide whether or not I have got a good deal this year or was ripped off last !
