PAYMENT OPTIONS FOR TAXES

At the office you can always pay the Township by cash or cheque, but we also have a debit machine available (debit cards only). You can pay us by visiting your local bank if you have your tax bill. If you want to pay from the comfort of your home, you can log into your bank and add the Township as a payee and use your roll number (0101-00#-0##-#######) as your customer number.

If you are up to date with your taxes and would like the Township to automatically withdraw money from your accounts, we can do so in two fashions: monthly withdrawals and withdrawals on tax due dates (last working day of March, May, August, and October).

E-BILLING OPTIONS

For more information, please visit the Township website. Automatic Payment is available on the due dates for water accounts. Bills can also be sent electronically.

PROPERTY TAXES, MUNICIPAL WATER AND SEWER

Property Taxes are the result of applying the tax rate to your assessment. The tax rate is deliberated on by your local Council and is based on the Township’s “Net Requirement”. The net requirement is all expenses less all revenues – the difference must be made up in taxes because municipalities are budget neutral. Your assessment is provided by MPAC and is based on overall market conditions on similar typed properties. If you wish to appeal your property assessment, please contact MPAC at 1-866-296-6722, or you can visit www.aboutmyproperty.ca

Municipal water and sewer is a user-funded system and is found in six communities: water and waste-water in Glen Walter, Lancaster, and South Lancaster, water only in Kennedy Redwood Estates and Farlinger’s Point, and waste-water only in Green Valley.
