Prepares property value assessments to distribute local taxes

Service description

​​
Property Assessment service measures the value of properties in the corporate limits of the city of Calgary and fairly and equitably allocates property taxes based on these values. We then prepare, communicate, and defend these property assessments.

We are mandated by The City’s and Government of Alberta's legislated requirement for market value property assessments. These assessments provide a basis for the fair and equitable distribution of property taxes which are then invested into delivery of public services, and to not-for-profit organizations.

What we heard
You’re satisfied overall with Property Assessment, but non-residential results are less positive. We are committed to addressing this decreased satisfaction with non-residential properties, as they aren’t a large number of overall properties, but do comprise a significant proportion by assessed value- which is what affects property tax dollars.
