City of Windsor 2018 Final Tax Bills in the Mail

The City of Windsor 2018 Final Property Tax Bills have been mailed. If you have not received your tax bills by July 10 or have questions in regards to the amount of the bill, please call 311 (alternate: 519-255-2489), 1-877-746-4311 for toll-free long distance. 

Please note that failure to receive a tax bill does not exempt property owners from paying their taxes. Penalties and interest (which can add up to 15% of the taxes on an annual basis) will be added for late payments. 

Property owners who are having trouble keeping up with their property tax payments are encouraged to seek lower cost financing alternatives, which are available through local financial institutions. Assistance through the City for property taxes is provided by way of the following programs:

  • Tax Repayment Program: available to all property owners
  • Tax Relief Program: available to single family residential property owners that meet the eligibility criteria (application deadline, February 28, 2019)

Due dates for regular tax payments are July 18, September 19 and November 14. The City also offers three convenient pre-authorized payment plans (PAP).
