Leduc County residents will soon receive their 2026 property assessment and tax notices in the mail. The county plans to send these documents out starting May 28, 2026, following the completion of the annual assessment process.
Under provincial regulations, these notices are legally considered to have been received seven days after they are sent, which makes the official receipt date June 4, 2026. Residents are encouraged to review their assessments carefully once they arrive. Payments for property taxes are due by June 30, 2026.
The mailing follows the Leduc County Council decision on April 28, 2026, to approve the final budget for the year. This budget includes a 2 per cent tax increase for residential and farmland properties, while non-residential properties will see a 2.5 per cent increase. Additionally, the county will collect and forward $37.7 million in education and regional housing requisitions to the Alberta Government and the Leduc Regional Housing Foundation, marking an increase from the $34.3 million collected last year.
For those enrolled in the Tax Instalment Payment Plan, the county will automatically adjust monthly installment amounts this June to account for the updated tax rates. Residents who do not pay by the June 30 deadline will face a 6 per cent penalty on current taxes starting July 1, with further penalties applied to outstanding amounts in November and March.
The county’s overall financial plan for 2026 includes a $120.3 million operating budget to cover day-to-day services and a $31.9 million capital budget for infrastructure projects. Major investments this year include $14.3 million for road work and $7.3 million for the East Water Transmission Line in Nisku.
