Pre-Authorized payment plan
You can fill out our pre-authorized payment plan enrollment application that offers three available plan options:
- Installment Plan: Payments that pay installments each year coinciding with the billing dates on your bills. The interim installment due dates are around the end of February and April. The final installment due dates are around the end of June and August.
- 10-Monthly Plan: A 10-month plan where payments for January to October will pay for the billing year, and are withdrawn from your bank account on 15th of every month.
- 12-Monthly Plan: A 12-month plan where payments for January to December will pay for the billing year, and are withdrawn from your bank account on 15th of every month.
For both monthly plans, January to June withdrawals are based on approximately 50% of your property taxes from the previous year. The final property tax rate is established around the beginning of June.
The amount you paid from January to June will be deducted from your final property tax amount. The amount remaining from that total will be divided between the remaining months of your plan.
PLEASE NOTE: There is a $45 NSF charge for any rejected payments. After two (2) infractions, the PAP option is removed and will no longer be a payment option for the ratepayer.
Mortgage Company
If your taxes are being paid through your mortgage company, we will provide your mortgage company a copy of your interim and final tax bills to submit payments on your behalf.
You will receive the final tax bill for income tax purposes with the mortgage company's name listed beside your roll number at the top right of the bill.
Is your account in arrears? |
The finance department can help you establish a monthly payment schedule to bring your account current. If you are making partial payment on your account, the attempt to satisfy your outstanding debt with the Municipality may not be sufficient to clear the balance. In addition, interest and penalty charges are applied at a rate of 1.25% per month. Any persons or financial institutions having an interest in your property may be notified of the non-payment of the account. To make arrangements for the payment of all arrears owing, contact the Finance department at 705-856-2244 Ext 226. |
