Law amendments announced by the Manitoba government would allow for property assessments to be sent digitally.

According to a release issued by Municipal Relations Minister Eileen Clarke, the changes would allow for electronic assessment notices to be sent out and would give municipalities the ability to post assessment roll information online.

Part of the motivation behind the changes is to reduce the number of statements that need to be mailed, which is supposed to save the government money and be less harmful to the environment.

The amendments would also help implement planning appeals, which were introduced under the Planning Amendment and City of Winnipeg Charter Amendment Act when proclaimed in October 2021.

“Planning appeals are fundamental to open and fair planning systems, and are necessary for upholding transparent and accountable decisions,” Clarke said in the release. “These amendments will streamline processes, improve transparency and ensure timely resolutions for planning appeals with the municipal board moving forward.”
