Reminder: Non-payment of property taxes
Each year, the City of Westmount prepares a list of properties for which property taxes remain unpaid (Cities and Towns Act, s. 511 and 512). In August 2024, the City’s Finance Department mailed one (1) reminder notice to the owners of the affected properties. On October 7, the City Clerk forwarded to the City Council the list of properties for which taxes remain unpaid. Council adopted a resolution ordering the publication and sale of the properties concerned.
