, No rebates: athe AI santa at BS i Ws pb Credits with income tax Tenants should not expect a property tax rebate cheque from their landlords this year, Ontario Treasurer Charles MacNaughton said today. Instead, tenants and homeowners will be applying for tax credits when they file their 1972 income tax returns early in 1973. Ontario's residential property tax re- duction program of the past four years is being replaced by a new property tax credit plan. Mr. MacNaughton said the new provincial plan, de- signed to more equitably distribute the property tax burden among homeowners and tenants, will work ! through the personal income tax system and be admin- istered for Ontario by the Department of National Revenue. "The property tax credit will come as an income tax refund cheque or as a reduction in income tax. However, 1 should advise Ontario homeowners that to qualify for the new property tax credit, 1972 municipal taxes must be paid during 1972," he said. Mr. MacNaughton said the new system will reduce the total property tax burden by at least $160 million. Low income groups will benefit most. The plan is also being extended to roomers and boarders.

DANCE MUSIC for young and old o® Contemporary ® Rock ® Country & Western ® Polkas etc. Weddings, Parties, Dances J. Peter Hvidsten 985-3089 The property tax credit plan is restricted to Ontario residents and applies to principal residences only. Residents in homes for the aged or tax-exempt institu- tions do not qualify. The Treasurer said the benefit to individual tax- payers will vary 'because we have: linked property taxes to income taxes and, therefore, to the individual's ability to pay. The majority of Ontario residents will receive more money back under the new plan. Some will receive about the same as last year, while high income earners will receive less. Homeowners, tenants and others who may be eligible -- such as roomers and stu- dents living on-campus -- will receive instructions on how to apply for and calculate the property tax credit when they receive 1972 income tax returns forms early next year.
