What the record shows

For 2026 the City's schedule lists for residential property 0.595375% for the City, 0.027907% for the City capital levy, 0.058582% for waste management, 0.114255% for transit, 0.774131% for the Region and 0.153000% for schools, a general total of 1.723250%; in the urban service area a further 0.025638% brings the total to 1.748888%. Niagara Region's By-law 2026-16 sets the general, waste management and transit rates, 0.946968% in all.

The bill multiplies the home's assessed value from MPAC by that rate. An asking price is not an assessed value, and a rate is not a bill. The actual bill for a home, and any amount owing on it, sit with its current owner and the City.
