Tax Calculation Example
Example of a property tax calculation:
Assume: Property’s assessed value is $300,000, is fully serviced and has an apartment.
Mill rate is 8.00.
The property tax calculation is:
$300,000 x 8.00 mils = $2,400
In addition to $2400, there is a $570 Residential Unit Charge for each of the two units and a $100 Residential Sewer Levy for each of the two units and a $150 Waste Management Levy for each of the two units.

+ $570 Residential Unit Charge for Unit 2 (apartment)
+ $100 Residential Sewer Levy for Unit 1
+ $100 Residential Sewer Levy for Unit 2 (apartment)
