Anyone who may have put their property tax notice aside when it was sent out in May is reminded to dig it out.
City of Vernon property taxes are due by 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 4.
If you did not receive your property tax notice by mail, please check your email inbox or log into your online MyCity account at www.vernon.ca/mycity to retrieve the information.
In addition to payment, eligible homeowners are reminded to claim homeowner grants by July 4. All homeowner grant applications must be submitted online or by phone directly to the Province of British Columbia. For more information on the application process, visit gov.bc.ca/homeownergrant or call 1-888-355-2700 to speak with a live agent.
To help property owners avoid waiting in a potentially long lineup to pay their property taxes, there are several ways you can make a payment without having to visit city hall cashiers:
• Online through your financial institution;
• By cheque through the mail; or
• By using the 24-hour drop box at the front entrance to city hall.
Please note that postmarks on mailed remittances will not be considered as date of payment.
