BC Assessment does not take into consideration if the property is contaminated. As many are aware, contamination reduces the value of the land. The deadline to file an appeal with BC Assessment is January 31, 2017. The environmental liability associated with a property can be determined by review existing environmental reports and comparing the data with the current standards.
