Property Taxes

How are my property taxes calculated?

There are a number of factors that go into setting your annual property tax rate, including:

• The Municipal Budget: which includes the costs to pay for local government services
• The Provincial Tax rate: which is set by the Government of Ontario to fund Schools (aka School Tax); and
• Your Property Assessment: which is set by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC)

Current and prior year tax rates can be found on our By-Laws Page. 

When are my property taxes due?

The Interim Tax Bills are scheduled to be mailed in January, and are due in two installments. The Interim installments are due on the last day of February and the last day of April.

The Final Tax Bills are scheduled to be mailed in July, and can only be done after Council passes the Annual Budget. They are due in two installments. The Final Tax installments are due on the last day of August and the last day of October.
