im sure those owners wanted that info posted
Stanwich – I agree. Yes, it is public information, but who would go looking for that kind of info … and the more important question is … why?
This is the stuff of a gossip magazine, not a news organization that wants to be taken seriously.
Give us average assessments, percentage of increases in assessments, tax rates, comparison to other cities, etc. That is useful info.
Posting the addresses of the 2 most expensive private homes in the area has exactly what value?
C’mon 250. Even on a slow news day, I know that you guys are better than this. :-)
Interesting tidbit. 3085 Point Grey belongs to Chip Wilson. Founder if Lululemon and also founder if 1990’s snowboard brand Westbeach.
Most expensive private residences is something that is posted on the assessment site.
In fact, there are fact sheets for each region specifically for that purpose.

The names of the owners are not posted. However, that can be found in some other fashion.
So, do not blame the media for releasing what is available by those people who post here and thus have some sort of electronic communication device which access the internet.
Get used to it, 1984 is not far off.
BTW, you can go to PGMap on he city web site and pick any property from the aerial photo map and get the same information and more …. cross reference that with google earth and streetview and one can see what the property looks like.
Ithaca, NY, through Cornell University had an even more advanced system on the public web some 2 decades ago.
Tie that in with the voters’ list and you get even more data.
Here is a much more interesting one – change in value by area and class.

Northwest had an increase of 53.54% in major industry assessment; 47.38 in utilities and 10.06 in residential.
Prince George region had 0.64%, 4.87% and 4.17% respectively.
Can we guess where the development is taking place?
Residential only:
Kamloops = 0.76%
Peace River = 9.22%
Vernon = -1.57%
Kelowna = -0.10%
Penticton = -0.94%
Fraser Valley = 1.53%
Surrey-White Rock = 1.98%
Richmond Delta = -0.15%
North Fraser = 0.68%
Vancouver = 1.61%
Island is all negative with the capital region the highest decrease at -2.69%
So, the PG region is doing quite well at 4.17%
