Due to recent amendments to the Municipal Government Act, Council and Administration of the Municipal District of Bonnyville have been granted the opportunity to create a new non-residential property tax class. The goal of this new property tax class is to provide property owners, who paid a non-residential property tax levy last year, an opportunity to qualify for a reduced property tax rate for this year. On November 22, 2017, Council included this new opportunity in the 2018 Interim Budget.
