Following the private meeting council still voted against the request to cancel the penalties. “Council and myself want the cost to fill this hole and the back taxes payed, full stop. Which is why administration is in the process of foreclosing on property tax arrears,” Sandra Masters, the Mayor of Regina said. “Anything we can do to facilitate the property taxes coming back into the city we are open to. At the end of the day, from a legal perspective, we were advised by our administration that this is unprecedented, we are not within the purview of the law to grant it.
