Interest & Penalty

A penalty of 1.25% for the entire month will be applied on the first day taxes are past due and every month thereafter in which default continues in the year 2014.

 

Interest will be added commencing January 1, 2014 at the rate of 1.25% per month on the first of every month.  Payments are applied to the oldest outstanding amount until the account is current.

 

The Tax Department has no authority to waive or alter a penalty and/or interest for any reason.

 

In accordance with the Municipal Act, 2001, any tax account payments will be applied first against late payment charges owing, starting with the oldest charges; and then payments will be applied against the taxes owing.  In other words, all penalty and interest charges have to be paid first before payments are applied to taxes owing.
