Property Tax Information
Property taxes provide the Municipality with the funds required to deliver many different day-to-day services and programs. Your property taxes are determined by multiplying the Current Value or "Assessment" of your property by the annual Tax Rate for the property type or "Property Class". Tax Bills are generally issued twice each year.
Interim Tax Billing
Interim Tax Due Dates: February 24, 2023 & May 26, 2023
The first bill or "Interim Tax Bill" is issued in early February and is based on 50% of the previous year's taxes. Any property value reassessment carried out by MPAC and impacts from budgets for the Municipality, County, and School Boards (provincial) will be reflected on your Final Tax Billing expected in early August. Taxes are due on the noted due dates on your bill regardless of you receiving a bill.
Final Tax Billing
Final Tax Due Dates: August 31, 2023 & October 27, 2023
The Final Tax Bills are mailed the first week of August with two due dates. Taxes are due on the noted due dates on your bill regardless of you receiving a bill.
Supplemental Tax Billing
If you have just purchased a newly constructed home or made any improvements or additions to your property, you may receive a supplemental tax bill for the increase in assessed value. The Supplemental Bill is in addition to what may have been previously billed on the property, even if the amounts are not yet due. Any amounts not paid by the due dates indicated on the bills will be subject to penalty/interest at a rate of 1.25% per month, on the first day of each month.
Your Property Assessment
Property owners are encouraged to visit www.mpac.ca – MPAC’s secure, online, easy-to-use self-serve website that allows property owners to learn more about how their property was assessed, see the information MPAC has on file, as well as compare it to others in their neighbourhood/area.
Appealing Your Assessment
Residential Property Owners - If you disagree with MPAC’s assessment of your property’s value and/or classification as of January 1, 2016, you can ask MPAC to review the assessment to make sure that it is right. This is called a Request for Reconsideration (RfR). You can make this request by completing and sending an RfR form to us. This request is free of charge.
For more information on assessment reconsideration, please refer to MPAC's website: www.mpac.ca
