Pre-Authorized Debit Payment Plan

The Pre-Authorized Debit Plan (PADP) allows for automatic pre-authorized debit withdrawals from your bank account in monthly instalments for property taxes and/or utilities. With no line ups, no late fees, no service charges and no postage, pre-authorized payments are a convenient payment method for residents. 

Automatic withdrawal dates are on the 15th of each month.

For property taxes, the payment amount is based on the previous years tax amount for the months of January to June. Once the current year's Levy is added to your tax account (months of January to June will be displayed on your tax bill as credits), the monthly amount adjusts to the balance owing for the remainder months from July to December.
