Preauthorized Payment for Property Taxes

The Township of Minden Hills has a Preauthorized Payment Plan for the payment of property taxes and offers you three convenient ways to pay your taxes. Payments will always be made on time, even if you are away.

Benefits of Enrolment include:

The elimination of postage and/or the expense and inconvenience of delivering payments to our office.
No more standing in line-ups, worrying about missed due dates, or incurring late payment charges.
No service charges or fees to participate in any of our payment plans.
Our monthly plan allows you to budget your property taxes over a 10-month period.
Once registered in one of our payment plans, your enrollment in subsequent years will be automatic.
You can enroll in any of our payment plans at any time! Simply complete and sign our Customer Agreement & Authorization form and provide alongside an unsigned blank cheque marked VOID.

Enrolment, Bank Account / Plan Changes and Cancellation

To be eligible to enroll in any of our plan your property tax account must be up-to-date.
Line of Credit or Credit Card Accounts are not accepted.
Your taxes cannot be included with your mortgage payments and paid by your Mortgage Company.
If for any reason you wish to be removed from your payment plan, or if your banking information changes, you must notify the Finance Department at least two (2) weeks prior to you next payment.

Payment Plan Options

Due Date Plan: If this plan is selected, the full amount of each tax instalment is the amount that is withdrawn from your bank account on the instalment date.
10 Month Plan: Our 10 Month Plan allows your property taxes to be paid over 10 months, February to November.
- Your 10 monthly payments will be withdrawn from your bank on the last business day of each month.
- You will be provided with a payment schedule in January and June of each year.
12 Month Arrears Plan: This plan is intended for property owners in arrears to bring their account current through monthly payments.
- If this plan is selected, the payment amount, subject to approval by the Finance Department, will be withdrawn on the last business day of each month.
- Penalty and interest will continue to apply to outstanding taxes throughout enrollment in this plan.
- Once the tax account is current, the option exists to switch to the 10 Month Plan, or remain enrolled in the arrears plan. However, throughout enrollment in the arrears plan it is the property owners responsibility to ensure each installment is paid in full or penalty will apply.

10 Month Plan: The monthly plan runs February through November. Payments will be withdrawn on the last banking day of each month. You will be provided with a payment schedule in January and June. Taxes must be paid to date with no overdue balances.

Due Date Plan: The two instalments shown on your interim tax bill and the two instalments shown on the final tax bill will be withdrawn from your bank account on the instalment due dates. Taxes must be paid to date with no overdue balances.

12 Month Arrears Plan Monthly payments, subject to approval by the Finance Department. Payments will be withdrawn on the last banking day of each month. Interest will continue to accrue. Payments will be applied to outstanding penalty/interest first, then towards taxes. Should you wish to use the 12 Month Plan for current tax payments, be advised that any portion of an installment not paid by the end of the month in which it is due will be subject to penalty. This is a set amount and is not automatically adjusted to account for tax increases; it is the owner’s responsibility to monitor their account balance and to contact the tax department to adjust the withdrawal amount should it not be sufficient to cover the levied amounts. Penalty will not be waived for any reason.
