Resolution

WHEREAS there is a group of industry and business associations working together as the Sask Growth Coalition to lobby the Province to introduce an Effective Mill Ratio (EMR) limit of 0.75:2.0, from the current 1:9 limit;

WHEREAS tax rates for agricultural and residential property classes would have to increase substantially to make up the revenue shortfalls resulting from this change;

BE IT RESOLVED that APAS work with SARM and SUMA to send out information to municipalities and the public about the intention and possible effects of the Sask Growth Coalition proposals.
