Resolute Tax Appeal In Thunder Bay Continues

Fort Frances isn't alone in its fight against recent mill re-assessments.

A hearing into a tax appeal by Resolute Forest Products for its Thunder Bay operations continues later this month.

Resolute wants the assessed value of its mill between 2009 and 2012, decreased 60 per cent.

A similar appeal for its Fort Frances mill led to the company and the town reaching a deal on a 25 per cent decrease and a tax rebate of $1.8 million.
