The City of Flin Flon is Proposing to Increase Fairness in Taxation and Competitiveness Through the Use of the Special Service Levy.

 The Special service levy would cover fire and protective services as well as recreation support services and snow removal and dust control. In her presentation last night Treasurer Lyn Brown noted the special service levy is based on actual budgeted costs to the city so it is to be apportioned equally to each property and the special service levy expenses removed from the mill rate which is based on the assessed value of property. She explained the proposed total special service levy value for the year is 894 dollars for the property tax roll and just over 395 dollars for the business tax roll with the proposed municipal mill rate going down from 25.97 in 2021 to 16.88 in 2022 so your taxes are not going up by 894 dollars per year although you may see an increase or decrease based on your assessment. Brown noted this summer they plan to complete efficiency studies on all services provided by the municipality.

             

The Levy still requires approval from the province.

             

The presentation is available on the City of Flin Flon website.
