Charity Rebates
Registered Charities are eligible for a property tax rebate equal to 40 percent of the taxes paid to the Corporation of Loyalist Township on eligible property it occupies as a tenant.
"Eligible Charity" means a registered charity as defined by subsection 238(1) of the Income Tax Act that has a registration number issued by the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency. "Eligible property" is defined as commercial or industrial property classes.
Organizations that move to another municipality within a taxation year are required to repay a pro-rated amount of the rebate to the municipality that issued the rebate, and all municipalities and school boards that share in the revenue shall share the cost of a rebate on a property.
The deadline for submitting applications is February 28 of the year following the taxation year to which the application relates.
