Any adjustments to the current year assessments will be completed after Final Tax bills are issued. Adjustment letters will be mailed separately. Until adjustments are completed on your account, the amounts billed should be paid by the due date to avoid penalties. Credit adjustments will be first applied to any balance owing on the property or refunded if the account has been paid in full.
Eligible charities may receive a rebate of the taxes on the building or portion of the building they occupy. The application must be submitted by the last day of February of the year following the year of the rebate.
