The province says it is taking action to help residents whose homes were destroyed during the 2023 wildfires in the Halifax Regional Municipality and Shelburne County.
Government says it has approved amendments that will ensure properties that were rebuilt similar to their condition before the wildfires will not result in an increase in the capped assessed value.
The province says the new rules are now in effect and will be reflected on 2025 property assessment notices.
Affected property owners will receive their notices later this month.
