Project Update & How to Stay Informed

3 July 2025

The Township of Lake of Bays is continuing the process of exploring and implementing a Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT). A dedicated project page has been launched to keep you informed and engaged throughout this process:

We are currently in the planning and consultation phase, with the MAT Task Force meeting regularly to develop recommendations regarding implementation and revenue distribution. Final decisions are expected in fall 2025, with the goal of rolling out the MAT shortly thereafter.

To ensure you’re kept in the loop, we encourage you to subscribe to the project page for updates, as well as opportunities to provide input.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
