The
IAAO Research Library will be under construction beginning in January
2017 to make room for our expanding resources! Our physical collection
will have limited access, and users should expect delays in document
delivery and reference request services. The construction is expected to
last two months which may cause some inconvenience for library users.
We apologize in advance for any difficulty which may result from this
remodel and encourage users to plan ahead and submit anticipated
requests before the end of the year. Send requests to library@iaao.org or call 816-701-8117 with questions.

By
the slimmest of majorities, the Supreme Court of Canada found in favor
of the City of Edmonton in applying a standard of reasonableness in a
case involving a municipal assessment dispute with a corporate taxpayer.
The SCC released a judgment in Edmonton (City) v. Edmonton East
(Capilano) Shopping Centres Ltd. that reinstated a municipal assessment
board's decision to increase taxes on the Capilano Mall in Edmonton.

The
owners of the Seneca Sustainable Energy wood-burning power plant north
of Eugene have won a big victory in Oregon Tax Court to cut their
property tax bill on the Highway 99 facility. If the government doesn’t
appeal the ruling by Tax Court Judge Henry Breithaupt, the plant's
annual property tax bill most likely would be slashed by about
two-thirds from its current level of $560,000.

Two

fighting 2011 city right-of-way assessments hoped a trial next week
would vindicate their claim that the city's assessment process is

Homeowners
in coastal California cities with higher home prices tend to have lower
property tax rates than residents of lower-priced inland cities thanks

example, homeowners in Laguna Beach have the eighth lowest tax rate
among California cities, while those in the Riverside County city of
Beaumont had the state's highest tax rate.

legal adviser and the Finance Ministry, Minister Apisak Tantivorawong
said.
