Please identify and describe three other government reporting requirements and what role the municipal administrator has in maintaining those requirements. Other Governmental Programs Encountered in Municipal Administration

As like any other private business in Saskatchewan, municipalities have similar responsibilities for collecting government taxes around sales tax, payroll tax and other speciality taxes. Some of the programs that a municipal treasurer will encounter are:

$1.$ Provincial Sales Tax $$ not a lot of municipal products or services are required to have PST levied on them, however there are a few. The Ministry of Finance provides interpretation bulletins on what$$s taxable and what is not.

$2.$ Municipal Employee Pension Plan $$ the majority of Saskatchewan municipalities outside some cities belong to MEPP. This is a defined benefit pension plan whereby pension contributions are deducted from the employee and matched by the municipality.

$3.$ Goods and Services Tax $$ similar to PST$,$ not a lot of municipal services are taxable for GST however when questions arise, interpretation bulletins can be found on Revenue Canada$$s website.

$4.$ Payroll Remittances $$ all municipalities with full or part time employees are required to deduct and remit income tax, Canada Pension Plan and Employment Insurance premiums to Revenue Canada.
