Property tax notices are mailed out by May 31 each year

Payments are due by June 30

Please pay early to ensure payments are processed on time to avoid a 6% penalty on July 1. Taxpayers who do not receive their tax notice by the second week of June should contact the Town Office at 780-987-8300.

Even though property tax dollars are collected in Devon, it doesn't all stay within the Town. Under provincial legislation, Devon must collect property taxes on behalf of Alberta Education and the Leduc Foundation to pay for education and affordable seniors housing. The municipal tax rate is generally established by Council in May of each year.

Property taxes are due by June 30 of each year.
