Order of the Assessment Review Board
These matters came before the Assessment Review Board at a pre-hearing telephone conference call held on December 11, 2015 at 11 am.
The Board finds the assessed persons/appellant to be in default of a previous Order of the Board that required the assessed persons/appellant to serve a Statement of Issues on the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) and the municipality and file proof of service with the Board.
Ms. Raquel Henry, on behalf of Kingmount Consulting advised the Board that it was no longer representing the Appellant. It is believed that the Altus Group is now representing the Appellant.
The Board orders that:
The Assessed Persons/Appellant shall serve a Statement of Issues on MPAC and the municipality no later than February 29, 2016.
The Assessed Persons/Appellant shall file notice of service of the Statement of Issues with the Board no later than February 29, 2016.
The Assessed Persons/Appellant are given notice that if the Board does not receive notice of service of the Statement of issues by said date, the Board will dismiss the appeals in accordance with section 8.2 of the Assessment Review Board Act without further notice to the parties.
In the event that the Assessed Persons/Appellant comply with this Board Order,
MPAC shall serve responses on the assessed person/appellant and the municipality no later than April 29, 2016.
If the municipality intends to take part in the proceedings, it shall serve responses on MPAC and the assessed person/appellant no later than April 29 2016.
These matters are adjourned to a further telephone conference call to take place on May 31, 2016 at 10:00 a.m. (hearing number 619240).
