The municipality is reporting that hundreds of interim property tax bills have been returned to them after problems with mailing addresses.
According to Amanda Bossy, supervisor of accounts receivable, Canada Post is no longer delivering bills based on rural route numbers or those that list general delivery as an option in Wallaceburg.
The municipality is asking any residents whose tax bill references a general delivery or rural route number, to contact them immediately.
“With the March 1 due date on its way, we would like anyone who hasn’t received a tax bill to contact the municipality at 519-360-1998 and we will look into the matter right away,” Bossy said.
Residents are reminded that failure to receive a tax bill does not exempt a property owner from the requirement of paying taxes.
