2023 Property Tax Notices being mailed out this week

The 2023 Property Tax Notices are being mailed on Wednesday, May 24.

Property owners who do not receive a 2023 Tax Notice by June 1 can log into MyCity, at Lethbridge.ca/MyCity, and register their property using the roll number and access code located on the Property Assessment Notice sent January 4, 2023. A copy of your tax notice can be reprinted once registered. If you are unable to do this, please call 311 (or 403-320-3111 if calling from outside of Lethbridge), or email tax@lethbridge.ca.

Due to delays at Alberta Land Title Office, property owners may have taken possession of a property in the City of Lethbridge but not be registered on title yet. If this is the case and you have not received your tax notice, please contact us for a copy. Proof of ownership will be required.

Late payment penalties will not be waived if you did not receive your Tax Notice.

Taxes are due by June 30, 2023, and a 7% penalty will be applied to all unpaid 2023 tax balances as of July 1.

The following payment options are available:

• In person: cash, cheques, and debit card payments are accepted on the main floor at City Hall from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Credit cards are not accepted at City Hall
• Directly at your bank and the City will accept the teller stamp date as the date of payment received
• Online or telephone banking using the 13-digit roll number located in the top right of your tax notice. Please select “Lethbridge (City of) Taxes”
