Mr. Domenilli provided brief history as to the evolvement of the program which started with a resolution from County Council to prepare tax Impact Study using 1992 market values. There are two options available being by "Full Market Value" or "Factored". The 1992 values would be used for implementation in 1996, and updated every 4 years.

Mr. Husband explained the difference between the two options, being that Full Market Value would see tax shifts occur among all property classes, as well as within classes. Factored by Property Class corrects assessment and tax inequities within each property class (residential and farm, mUlti-residential, commercial, industrial, pipelines) throughout the County, but does not resol ve inequi ty among classes. Both options and the tax impacts completed, include both the cities of Barrie and Orillia as participating. If either or both opt not to be involved, new tax impact studies will need to be done taking approximately 6 weeks. Each municipality will vote on whether they want County-wide reassessment and their preferred method. A majority of the municipalities will be needed prior to a majority of County Council authorizing its implementation. I Mr. Husband distributed the Impact I Studies on both methods and went I through the documents with councilll explaining the information containedl therein.
