taxing powers by atatuta nest year after current investigations of taxation have been completed and their find ings studied in the meantime however mr spooner wants the municipalities to put their li nandal affairs in better order municipal revenue is based on assessment u the assessing is indifferently done the munici pality suffers and spooner does not have a high opinion of as sessment practices across tbe province it u safe to say that if the edmltilttrauon or the tmbsse by the senior levels of govern ment were as inadequately ad ministered the nation would probably be bankrupt he says bluntly survey findings ills opinion is based on survey his department conduc ted last year in the course of which m0 assessment rolls were examined in detail the depart mant found 84a municipalities had neither revised nor adjusted assessed vsluei tinea ism 408 municipalities did not use an integrated assessment system or manual although soma used parts si several dlf ferent ayitems 1s4 munlcpalltlis had no ap praisal records of any kind sos municipalities did not use mechanical systems to prepare assessment rolls us municipalities did not pre pare their easeaetnent rolls in accordance with the act 170 municipalities did not in cluda population u the assess ment rolls mi municipalities did not bother to a aasess or collect business tax hit municipalities did not sand assessment notices to te nants many of whom were de prived of voting and school sup port privileges sm municipalities show com pletely unacceptable deviations from the value norm for ear- tain classes of property tor example if the riialn value for all property was ss per cent of market value then reslden ual might read is per cent commercial 45 per cent indu trial 10 per cent and farm 30 per cent kwrtualltlaa meted in every county there was an unacceptable deviation in the ratio of assessed value to msr- ket value for the various muni dualities department comment it la true thst county equal sallons reduces tha impact to soma degree no etjuallutlon program no milter how well considered cin remove these inequalities the survey produced other startungeyldence otpoor as sessment practices spooner cl ted such examples u assess able properties missing from the roll summer cottages assessed foe business aasessment and what mutt be termed deliberate oyer and under assesamert of property the aasessment office it the moat important function within a municipality spooner polnta out it not only raises the tax monies which make possible all other municipal services but it also apportions the cost of these services among individual ratepayers some ratepayers are now paying too much others are paying too little and more than you suspect are not paying at all- in these days of escalating taxes many municipal organl rations are demanding access to other sources of revenue without making a reasonable attempt to properly administer the ona they already have need trained man training facilities ld asses sors are available he says and it is up to the uunlcr- palltleato employ theselrained men pay them attractive ta- larlea and allot them office space and equipment ao they can work efficiently we can not allow a tax base our total municipal assessment which produces 8t4 million id taxes in ontario to be in hands of part time or untrained em ployees j only 10 counties and one ter
