The Municipality of the District of Shelburne sends property tax bills to all property owners twice each year. Bills are sent out in April and September. The April “interim bill” will reflect 60% of the previous years total tax. The September “final bill” will make up the balance of the current years taxes based on the current assessment and tax rate.
The tax calculation is based on the assessed value of the property divided by 100 multiplied by the applicable tax rate.
