The NPA's four goals for municipalities: make oil and gas companies pay their property taxes, eliminate the Rural Assessment Policy, reform farm land taxation for fairness, and standardize residential rezoning to limit multiplex density.
Oil and Gas Property Tax Accountability
Over $250 million in unpaid property taxes from oil and gas companies is hurting rural Alberta. We need stronger rules to make companies pay their fair share for roads, services, and infrastructure.
Property Tax Reform
Eliminate the Rural Assessment Policy (RAP) and reform farm land taxation. Everyone should pay their fair share of property tax on their primary residence - no special deals for any group.
Rezoning and Multiplex Standards
Standardize residential zoning to cap multiplex developments at 4 units, restore public consultation for larger projects, and ensure infrastructure supports any density increases.
