Leduc County is urging all residents, landowners, and business owners to verify that their mailing information is up-to-date to ensure they receive essential property tax and assessment documents. With the annual property tax deadline of June 30 approaching, officials want to ensure no property owner misses critical notifications, which could lead to financial penalties.
According to Leduc County, property owners are responsible for notifying the municipality of their correct mailing address. Under provincial legislation, the municipality uses the Alberta Land Titles Office as the primary source for mailing records. Consequently, residents must update their information with both the county and the provincial land titles office to ensure records are accurate.
Failure to receive a tax notice is not accepted as a valid reason for late payment under county policy. This is because tax notices are legally considered received seven days after they are mailed, regardless of whether they arrive at the property owner’s current address. Any payments made after the June 30 deadline will be subject to penalties beginning July 1.
To update contact details, residents should contact the Leduc County Assessment Department by email at [email protected] or by phone at 780-955-6412 or 780-955-3555. Additionally, address change requests can be directed to the Alberta Land Titles office at 780-427-2742.
