LETTER: Property tax: read the fine print

Dear Editor: Along with the tax notice printed in “huge” letters, there came another insert. It was in such small print, one needs a microscope to read it.

Dear Editor:

Along with the tax notice printed in “huge” letters, there came another insert. It was in such small print, one needs a microscope to read it.

How on earth do the staff at the District of North Vancouver think a senior with failing eyesight is going to read it? The insert turned out to tell seniors of the availability of tax deferral etc.

Editor’s note: July 4 is the deadline for filing a property tax payment (last day to avoid a five per cent late penalty), homeowner grant application and/or property tax deferment application. Families with children may also apply for tax deferment. Details and eligibility requirements at dnv.org/property-and-development.
