Payment

You may make payments at the Administration Office (35 Alice Street), by internet or telephone banking, or by automatic withdrawal.
Payments must be received by the due date or there will be a penalty of 1.25% to any late or unpaid balance on the first day of each month.
Payments received are applied to outstanding penalty/interest charges first and then to the oldest outstanding taxes.
The Municipality is not responsible for payments made on wrong accounts.
If you get a tax notice that is not yours, please return it to the tax office.
If you sell your property, please leave the tax bill or a copy for the new owner.

Tax bill reprints and certificate requests

In accordance with our General Fees and Charges By-law there are fees for tax certificate requests and tax bill reprints.

Tax Rates

To determine the amount of taxes levied against a property, the Municipality multiplies the assessed value of a property by the approved tax rate. Taxes are collected on behalf of the County of Northumberland, the School Boards and the Municipality.

The 2020 Tax Rate By-law was adopted by Council on May 4, 2020.
