REMINDER Council sits as a quasi-judicial body during Public Hearings.

VALUABLE INFORMATION . Your property assessment notices were mailed to you by Sept. 30. These notices establish the value of your property for tax purposes in 1989 and 1990. A careful review of the assessed figure is wise, particularly as it compares to other properties. The B.C. Assessment Authority can tell you the average increase of assess- ed values in your assessment cate- gory (i.e. the average residential increase district wide is 23 per cent). - If your assessment increase is higher than the average it will mean your property wiil be levied a greater share of 1989 property taxes. The municipality has no control _ over the assessed values. They are set by the assessment authority. Any inquiries or appeal should be made through that agency at 984- 9751. The deadline for appeals is tomorrow, Oct. 31. ADJOURNMENT Experience i is the hardest kind of ‘teacher.
