Vancouver could certainly increase property taxes across the board – a very divisive issue with strong support in some corners and vociferous opposition in others – but the city doesn't have the authority to adjust property taxes in special cases, for example for properties that don't provide EV charging. That would require a legal change by the province.
Could they just generally increase taxes across the board, and give out cash to properties that provide EV charging (not as a rebate, but other incentive)?
