PROPERTY TAXES
Current taxes are due and payable, without penalty, by September 29, 2023. Payments must be received in the Municipal Office on or before September 29, 2023 in order to avoid penalty.
PENALTIES of one and quarter percent (1.25%) will be added on October 1st and on the first day of each month thereafter, until paid or the time of the tax sale. Lands in arrears for more than one year will be subject to tax sale. Arrears that are shown on your tax bill are subject to further penalties e.g.
Arrears paid in October must include penalties at 1.25%. Post-dated cheques will be accepted. Receipts will be forwarded by mail. Pre-payments will be accepted.
The property owner’s name and address which appears on the enclosed bill is in accordance with the latest information which has been made available to the municipality. If, however, any ownership change has since occurred, please forward the enclosed bill to the current owner or return it immediately to the municipal office with an explanation.
Failure to receive a bill does not excuse an owner from responsibility for payment of taxes nor relieve that owner from liability for any late payment penalty.
All tax sales are final at public auction. There will be no redemption period once the TAX SALE, by public auction, has taken place. All properties with previous arrears, of any amount, are eligible to be sold at Tax Sale.
NOTE: Please notify the municipal office if for any reason you do not want your name on the ownership map.
Please note that the R.M. of Rosser has no control over the school tax portion of your property tax bill. It is important that rate-payers are aware of the fact that school taxes are entirely the responsibility of the Province of Manitoba and School Boards. The municipality is required, by Provincial Statute, to collect them. More information can be obtained by contacting the Interlake School Division at 467-8485 or your school trustee.
