Edmonton’s City Council has voted to increase municipal property taxes by 5.7 percent.
Council approved the rate during a review of its budget, and passed the increase in an April 30 meeting.
The increase will see homeowners pay about $763 in taxes for every $100,000 of assessed home value. That amount is $51 more than in 2024.
“Property taxes in 2025 will generate more than $2.2 billion to help fund the 70 City services Edmontonians use every day, including emergency services, parks, trails, roads, bridges, transit, recreation centres, attractions and social supports,” the city said.
It estimated a property that has an assessed value of $465,500 will pay about $296 each month in municipal taxes….
