OARBAssessment Review BoardMay 29, 2015

Property assessment reduced; MPAC failed to prove highest and best use was high-density redevelopment.

The appellant appealed the property assessment of a standard industrial property for the 2013 and 2014 taxation years.

MPAC had increased the assessment from $1,285,000 to $2,045,000 based on a highest and best use of redevelopment into a high-density condominium, relying on a recommended zoning by-law amendment.

The Assessment Review Board found that MPAC failed to prove that redevelopment was the highest and best use, as the zoning amendment had not yet been enacted and remained speculative.

The Board reduced the assessment to the original returned value of $1,285,000.

Vera McNally v. Municipal Property Assessment Corporation, Region 09, 2015 CanLII 30373

Assessment of underground parking garage reduced to $695,000 based on income approach; portfolio sale allocation rejected.

The appellant appealed the property assessment of an underground parking garage for the 2013 and 2014 taxation years.

The assessment was originally returned at $1,023,000, and MPAC recommended a reduction to $734,000 based on the income approach.

The appellant argued for a value of $430,750 based on an allocated purchase price from a portfolio sale.

The Assessment Review Board rejected the portfolio sale allocation as unreliable and determined the current value using the income approach with actual rental revenue and MPAC's expense ratio.

The Board reduced the assessment to $695,000 and found no further equity adjustment was required.
