To help support citizens during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Town of Drumheller is committed to providing increased flexibility to aid ratepayers with the 2020 Property Tax payment.
Both residential and commercial taxpayers who normally pay their property taxes in a lump sum on or before the due date of August 31, are now able to take an additional ninety (90) days to pay their taxes without penalty. 2020 Property taxes are now due on November 30, 2020.
“Due to the economic uncertainty brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic and the thought that some of our residents are just starting back to work,” said CAO Darryl Drohomerski. “Council approved tax deferrals until November 30, without penalty. This decision was made in an effort of assisting residents with possible financial burden. However, customers can still pay their taxes prior to August 31 if they wish, and we encourage residents to do so if they are able.”
For those customers on the monthly payment plan, there is no change for due dates.
There is no requirement to contact the town to indicate your wish to pay your 2020 Property Taxes later than August 31. For further details about the deferral, please call 403-823-1314 or email utilities@drumheller.ca
