Annual tax rates are calculated during the spring budget process. Once the tax levy by-law has passed, the rates will be posted in PDF format on this page (accessible versions available upon request).
Interim payments are based on 50% of the last year's taxes divided into two payment dates.
The final billing will be the total taxes for the year less the interim billing - divided into two equal installments.
