An Ottawa landlord says he may be on the hook for the city's new vacant unit tax even though his property is occupied.
If you haven’t filled out your vacant unit tax declaration, the deadline is coming up this week. But it hasn’t been a smooth process for everyone.
Reebs provided CTV News with pictures of the damage, which include a hole cut in the backyard fence and trash throughout the home. He says the furnace filter was clogged with spray paint too.Repairs had to be made before renting the unit out again. But he works full-time, faced some supply chain issues with materials, then needed to find a suitable tenant. All of that took time, leaving the place empty.
As of Monday morning, about 305,000 Ottawa residents have submitted the information required by the city'sas the deadline approaches this Thursday. That represents about 94.5 per cent of the properties required to submit declarations under the new tax, which will see vacant properties assessed an extra one per cent tax this year.
The city has sent letters and emails with information on how to submit the information. But they are doing more outreach next week to capture the seven per cent of homeowners who haven't filled out their declarations yet.
