F-2.1 - Act respecting municipal taxation
Section 253.51
Disposition versions
253.51. Any local municipality may, by by-law, provide for a surcharge on the amount of a real estate tax payable for a fiscal year in respect of a unit of assessment in order to limit the percentage of the reduction, in relation to the amount of the tax payable in respect of the unit for the preceding fiscal year, resulting from the coming into force of the real estate assessment roll of the municipality.
The by-law passed under the first paragraph has effect for the purposes of a single fiscal year. The municipality shall not pass such a by-law for the purposes of the third fiscal year for which its roll applies; it may pass such a by-law for the purposes of the second fiscal year only if it passed such a by-law for the purposes of the first fiscal year. The municipality shall not pass such a by-law for the purposes of any fiscal year for which a resolution it passed under section 253.27 applies, except if the resolution applies only to the roll of rental values.
