Property Tax Payment Day arrives in Prince Rupert

If you haven't paid your City of Prince Rupert Property Tax bill yet, you have few hours left to take care of business or face a penalty for tardiness.

The deadline for payment comes up at 4:30 this afternoon.

Though from the City's Social Media stream, it would appear that unless you're bringing in a wad of cash today to make payment, you may have already missed the payment deadline.

Last week, the City reposted its original notice of mid June on payment options, mainly noting that for those making use of electronic means of payment the deadline was actually that of June 27

The penalty for late payment is 10 percent which will be assessed as of the end of business today.

The city's Social media notice also provides a look at options for residents, including theopporthisy to sign up for pre-authorized payment to spread out the hit of tax collection over each month.

For those looking for a solution to their 2023 property tax woes, contact City Hall at 250-627-0964 to learn more about that option.

Residents of the District of Port Edward have a bit more time to prepare for tax time, the District does not set a payment due date until August 2nd.
