Camp Lutherlyn's Request for Property Tax Exemption

2021-02-19 18:26:54

Thank you everyone for signing the petition.

Unfortunately, the Finance and Administration Committee of the County of Renfrew is not recommending approval of exemption of the County portion of Property Tax. Their decision was based largely, I believe, on a concer that the Assessment Act doesn't allow the exemption for camps owned by charities who are not religious groups. That is a good idea and one which we think should be included in amended legislation, but unfortunately not under our control. 

The final decision will be made at County Council this coming Tuesday, Feb 24th morning.


Alison Burkett, Treasurer, Camp Lutherlyn
