PROPERTY ASSESSMENT AND SCHOOL TAXES Notice to Business Partnerships and to Publicly Traded Corporations and their Subsidiaries Starting in 1990, the rules by which business partnerships and publicly traded corporations and their subsidiaries direct their school tax support will change. This will affect the way the property assessment assessment base is allocated among Public, Separate and French-language School Boards. • Business partnerships will acquire the right to support a Separate School Board, or the French-language School Board in Ottawa- Carleton, up to the proportion that the partnership is held by Separate School supporters or French-language School supporters. Until now, all partners had to be Roman Catholic or Francophone and agree to do so. • The property assessment of publicly traded corporations and their subsidiaries will be shared between Public and Separate School Boards in the same area, and in Ottawa-Carleton by the Public, Separate and French-language School Boards, in proportion to each board's residential and farm assessment. Until now, a corporation's support for a Separate School Board, or the French-language School Board in Ottawa-Carleton, could not exceed the proportion of shares held by Roman Catholics or Francophones. In order to implement this initiative, the Ministry of Revenue must amend its records to identify those business partnerships that wish to « split their school tax support, and to identify all publicly traded corporations corporations and their subsidiaries. Information about the new school support rules will be sent to you in the near future, along with a Notice of Property Valuation. Please review the new rules, and then check your Notice to verify that' the Ministry of Revenue has correctly identified your school support. If it's not right, please tell us. A reply form will be inçluded with the Notice. , • _ , Your cooperation will ensure the proper allocation of-your school taxes to the School Boards in your area. Ministry of Revenue Ontario
