Permissive Tax Exemptions Policy

The District of Squamish may on a request-by-request basis, support voluntary non-profit organizations by exempting land or improvements, or both, from taxation under Section 224 of the Community Charter.

This policy is intended to provide guidance to Council in the processing of applications for exemption from property taxes. This is a means for Council to support organizations within the community.

The District of Squamish would like to provide consistent, equal treat treatment and consideration for all applicants. There is no obligation on the part of Council to grant exemptions.
