For new property taxpayers who did not have a full year of occupancy in 2000, the annualize amount represents what they would have been billed had they be in their dwelling for the entire year. York Region also contributes funding toward the Lake Simcoe and Toronto and Region Conservation Authorities, the 911 emergency response system, and GO Transit operations and capital expansions. The 2001 Interim Property Tax Bill is deducted from the total taxes due for the year. A Supplementary Tax Bill may be issued later this year. These additional taxes are levied for newly constructed buildings or other changes in your Current Value Assessment.
Personal payment is also available at most banks with the payment stub.
Depending on the type of account you have, your bank may levy a charge for this service. Post-dated cheques for the due date of the installments will be accepted and held until the due date. Some financial institutions also offer a service to customers, which provides for payment of taxes by telephone or Personal Computer banking. These arrangements may be made by contacting your banking institution directly to determine if these services are available. If you are mailing your payment, please allow sufficient time for the payment to reach our office on or before the due date in order to avoid penalty charges.
