Property Tax Statement

Property Tax Statements are mailed to residents by the end of May annually. If you do not receive the property tax statement by mid June, contact the Revenue and Tax Collection Department at 604-533-6005 or contact us by email.

Property owners are responsible for payment of property taxes whether or not a Property Tax Statement is received.

The property tax rates, along with the property classification and assessed value of your property, are used to determine the amount of your property taxes. Property taxes cannot be appealed.
