Panlalawigan (SP) Aklan has forwarded requests of local government units to
defer the implementation of Provincial Tax Ordinance No. 001, S., 2014 on
general revision of base market values of real properties in Aklan supposed to
be effective starting 2015.
The
requests are embodied in Kalibo and New Washington Resolution including
barangay resolutions of the Liga ng mga Barangay in New Washington and Barangay
New Buswang in Kalibo.
All
resolutions described Provincial Tax Ordinance No. 001, S., 2014 as
unconscionable, oppressive and confiscatory and such resolutions requested this
body to defer implementation or amend said ordinance that it may not be
burdensome to taxpayers who were recently hit by Super typhoon Yolanda.
Meanwhile,
SP emphasized that it has complied with all the procedural requirements
prescribed by law in the Republic Act No. 7160. Section 219 of Local Government
Code.
