Magrath's 2020 Tax Rate Bylaw
Town of Magrath • May 13, 2020
At last night’s Council Meeting, Town Council passed Magrath’s 2020 Tax Rate Bylaw.
This bylaw keeps the Town’s mill rates at the same level they were in 2019. In addition to the deferral options that the Town announced last month, administration was able to successfully prepare this year’s budget based on the goal of a 0% increase to the residential and non-residential mill rate. Now passed by Council, this means that every property owner in Magrath will only see the municipal portion of their property tax increase this year if their property assessment value increased.
By not raising the mill rate this year and offering the deferrals to residents to use if needed, it was the Town’s objective to give our residents greater certainty and control in being able to manage their finances through these unprecedented economic times. Tax notices will be mailed out by the end of the week.
Magrath Days represent a time where we all reflect about how our community is growing and to look hopefully into the future. This special video was created to commemorate that endless spirit. From our pioneering roots to the vibrant community we are today, this milestone is a tribute to the people, places, and stories that have shaped our town across generations. A place where kids can be kids. A place for learning, working, and thriving. A place where community comes first. Whether you were born here, moved here, or just love visiting, this is your story of growing with us too.
Please note that due to Magrath Days, the Transfer Station will be CLOSED on Saturday, July 26. Instead, it will be OPEN on Friday, July 25 from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Thank you for your understanding, and enjoy the festivities!
