*UPDATES*

Beginning in 2020, Halton Region is recommending the removal of the discounts for the commercial and industrial vacant and excess land subclasses pending approval from the Province.

2019 Final Tax Rates

The tax rates for city and regional purposes are determined as a result of city and regional council approval of their respective budgets. The tax rates for all classes of property are calculated as a "multiplier" of the residential tax rate (RT) based on the transition ratios approved by regional council. The province establishes the tax rates for educational purposes.
