A Friendly Welcome -- A Special Notice to Tenants and Landlords Tenants in apartment buildings should receive a little extra money this month under the Ontario Government's property tax reduction system. The system eases the burden of municipal and school taxes on homeowners and tenants. In effect, the Province is paying part of the property taxes for each eligible house and apartment. Tenants should receive their reductions on or before December 31. Many tenants who vacated premises earlier in the year will have already received Iheir reductions. Here is what should happen: IF YOU ARE A LANDLORD... You must pay the full reduction to tenants who nave occupied your premises throughout 1969. Payment must be made on or before December 31,1969. A tenant who moved in during the year and is still occupying your premises must receive one-twelfth of the total reduction for each month of tenancy. It must be paid on or before December 31. A tenant who moved out during the year must receive a similarly proportionate amount within 30 days of the date he terminated hi%tenancy or on December 31, whichever is earlier. THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY TAX k REDUCTION ACT (1968) If a tenant is in arrears, the tax reduction may be deducted from such arrears. However, the reduction must not be withheld because of damages or losses. IF YOU ARE A TENANT... You should receive your reduction from your present landlord on or before December 31, 1969. If you moved out of an apartment during the year and have not yet received your share of the reduction, you should contact your former landlord immediately to make sure he knows where to send your payment. Tenants in apartment buildings such as duplexes and highrises are usualjy eligible for the tax reduction. Tenants of flats or basement apartments in houses may not qualify because the premises they rent are not separately assessed. For example, roomers are not eligible. If you are unsure of your status or eligibility, contact your municipal tax office. IF YOU ENCOUNTER PROBLEMS... You should either telephone Toronto 363-7501 or write the Municipal Subsidies Branch, Department of Municipal Affairs, 801 Bay Street, Toronto 181. Officials are available to assist you. Pamphlets outlining details of the 1969 tax reduction system can be obtained on request. THE DEPARTMENT OF MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS Hon, W. Darcy McKeough, Minister itster Jj
