Property tax exemption for non-profits engagement

Stakeholders can help inform how municipalities evaluate property tax exemptions for non-profit organizations.

Overview

The Community Organization Property Tax Exemption Regulation (COPTER) provides municipalities with criteria and conditions to use for evaluating property tax exemption applications for non-profit organizations that provide a public benefit to their community.

We are seeking input to help improve the way non-profits are evaluated when they apply for a property tax exemption.

Feedback will help inform ways to improve consistency of interpretation and ease of application, and to ensure property tax exemptions are equitably available to non-profit organizations that provide similar services or essential supports for communities.
