Mayor Says Tax Hike Would Be "Worst Case Scenario"

While the city goes back to the province with reform approvals on the pension plan, Mayor Ivan Court can't guarantee that taxes won't go up if the province rejects their plans.

He tells CHSJ News that will be a worst case scenario but adds the threat of a tax hike always looms over the head of council -- they deal with it every year with the annual budgets.

He says the city has held the tax rate for the past 3 years and council will cross that bridge when it gets there.
