Chapleau Council Rejects Leniency Request Amid Crackdown on Back Taxes

Chapleau Town Council's rejected a request for leniency on property taxes.

Mayor Ryan Bignucolo explains Council considered a request in their meeting this week.

Bignucolo says "it wouldn't be fair", given the number of other tax arrears.

This comes amid a crackdown by the Township on back taxes owed, with plans to move forward on tax sales, if they remain unpaid.
