Property Taxes and Assessment

Request For Reconsideration

 If you feel that the assessment of your property is incorrect, you can appeal to the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) by submitting a Request for Reconsideration (RFR) form. There is no fee for an RFR.

The deadline for submitting an RFR is March 31st of the year for which you are requesting the review.  (For example, March 31, 2018 for 2017 taxes.)

Tax Adjustment

If the status of your property changes due to fire, demolition, or removal of buildings, please inform us in writing by completing a Form 357/358, so the necessary adjustments to the assessed value and/or tax class can be processed.

Appeals must be filed by the last day of February following the taxation year. (For example, February 28, 2018 for 2017 taxes.)

Assessment Complaints

To file a complaint with the Assessment Review Board (ARB), a property owner must have previously submitted a Request for Reconsideration to MPAC by the March 31st deadline. 

For more information about assessment appeals, please see Environment and Land Tribunals Ontario.
