Finance - Rural Property Tax

Tax Rates - Sample Tax Estimate

This is an example of a tax rate table for the rural Penticton area in 2000. The items highlighted in blue are tax categories for which virtually all rural properties are taxed. Almost all properties are also taxed for a regional district electoral area. In this example, Electoral Area B has been selected (highlighted in red).

To determine other local services you need to be familiar with the area or specific property. In this example, it is assumed no fire protection or other services apply. However, the Okanagan Regional Library (OKAN. REG. LIBRARY) is billed throughout the regional district (highlighted in green).

Please see the Tax Rate Key for information on the column headings, property classifications, categories, and tax codes used in the table.
