Property tax notices go out on June 2

While those who have registered to receive their property tax notices electronically will get them by end of day on Friday, Lloydminster residents will be having their assessments mailed out on June 2, say city officials.

Property owners who have not received their notices by Monday, July 3 are asked to contact the Assessment & Taxation department by calling 780-875-6184 Ext. 2124 or email: [email protected] to get a copy.

New property owners in Alberta

For those who bought a new property in Alberta in 2023, the City states if you did not receive a tax notice, please contact the Assessment & Taxation department immediately.

A two-month delay at the Alberta Land Titles Office is resulting in the City not receiving Alberta ownership change information in a timely manner and a tax notice may not have been issued to the new property owner. The new owner must provide the city with proof of ownership, and the city will provide a copy of the tax notice.

Property tax determination and payment options

Property taxes are calculated and billed annually using the property’s assessed value and the 2023 property tax mill rate approved by City Council on Tuesday, May 23.

Penalties for failing to pay property taxes commence from Tuesday, July 25, 2023.

The following methods of payment are accepted:

  • Cash
  • Cheque
  • Debit card
  • Online banking
  • Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD) Plan

Payments can be made in person at City Hall (4420 50 Avenue) during regular business hours, Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., excluding holidays. After-hours payments can be made via cheque (ensure to include the tax roll number) using the mail slot inside the west entrance.

Access to the mail slot is available from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., seven days a week.

Property owners can also pay property taxes through their financial institution. Credit cards are not an accepted form of payment for property taxes at City Hall.

Paperless property tax notices

Property owners may sign up for a paperless option to access property taxes on the city’s website.
