What is Market Value Assessment?
Minimum Tax Bylaw
The MGA permits a municipality to levy a minimum amount payable as a property tax in its property tax bylaw. A minimum amount payable is not a fixed surcharge on all taxpayers; it is a tax floor amount on each property. Municipalities are able to realize additional revenue on these properties only if the calculated tax rate multiplied by the assessed value of these properties is lower than the minimum amount payable. If the calculated tax amount is higher than the minimum amount payable, the minimum amount payable is no longer applicable. The MGA grants no authority for both a minimum amount payable and a tax rate on a property.
Annually, as specified in the Municipal Property Tax By-law, property owners will be apprised of the approved minimum amount payable as property tax for each parcel of property through advertising, newsletters and the Municipal Website. Property owners are encouraged to review
Policy TX-005 Minimum Tax that provides owners the opportunity to consolidate adjacent properties subject to the minimum property tax. Consolidation of adjacent properties is the responsibility of and requires a deciison of the owner and must be completed on or before June 1 of the current tax year. All matters and costs relating to consolidation must be considered by the owner before proceeding. For questions or to speak with the Taxation Clerk or the Director of Finance, call 403.562.8833 or email
