Paying by mail

We accept property tax cheques post-dated. 

Make your cheque payable to the District of Sechelt and mail it, along with the remittance stub.

Please allow suitable mailing time. Payments will be on time if postdated on or before the due date.

Mail delayed by Canada Post will be considered late and subject to penalty.

Paying at the Municipal Hall

We accept Cheque, Cash, or Debit.

CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS ARE NOT ACCEPTED FOR PROPERTY TAXES

Mortgage

It is between you and your Mortgagee to ensure that property taxes are paid to the District in full, including the portion of your property taxes that may be covered if you are eligible for the Provincial Home Owner Grant.  

The Mortgagee must advise the District of Sechelt that they require annual property tax information on your property.  As a precaution, we recommend that if you have a new mortgage that you take a copy of your property tax notice to your Mortgage holder to ensure that they are remitting property taxes on your behalf.

Pre-Authorized Payment Plan

You will determine the amount of your monthly fixed prepayment, which will be deducted from your bank account on the first business day of the 10-month period beginning in August and ending in May.

The minimum monthly installment amount is $10.00. The total payments made under this option may not exceed the estimate of next year's property taxes.

To apply to pay your taxes monthly, fill in an application form. Submit the application form and a VOID cheque, to the municipal hall.

Already paying your taxes monthly? You do not need to apply again. Your monthly payments will automatically resume in August.

Pre-Authorized Payment Plan Form

Water utility fee

The Sunshine Coast Regional District is responsible for the water service in the District of Sechelt. For more information please contact them directly, online or by phone at 604-885-6800.

Any water user fee unpaid by December 31st of any year it is due shall be deemed taxes in arrears on the land or real property on which the fee is imposed.  Once added to taxes these accounts accrue interest at a rate set quarterly by the Province.
