Alberta — Bills

Bill No. 31 of 1944. A BILL TO AMEND THE ASSESSMENT ACT. NOTE. This Bill amends The Assessment Act,

chapter 157, R.S.A., 1942. The amendment to

section is intended to make it clear that a dormitory building owned and operated by a school district or school division in a municipality is to be exe'mpt from assessment, together with the land upon which it is situated. The Bill adds a new subsection to

section 8. Subsection (2) of

section now requires that a municipality or collect ing school district may impose a tax on personal property if a by-law is passed each year authorizing it. The object of the amendment which introduces a new subsection (2a) is to make it unnecessary to pass this by-law every year. The by-law when passed will remain in force from year to year until repealed in some subsequent year by a by-law passed prior to the first of May in that year. w. S. GRAY, Acting Legislative Counsel.
