Northern Sunrise County will be hosting a telephone town hall meeting on Tuesday night.
The focus will be on the Alberta government’s review of the property assessment model.
Last month, municipal councils were notified that the province is considering reducing the amount of property taxes that oil and gas companies need to pay.
Several governments within the Peace Region have expressed concern in how a change in assessment models could hamper the bottom lines of counties and municipal districts.
Among the governments opposing the plan include: Northern Sunrise County, the County of Northern Lights, Birch Hills County, the Municipal District of Greenview, and the County of Grande Prairie.

The call starts at 7:00 PM and attendees will have an opportunity to ask questions.
