Property Taxes

The Municipality of Leamington collects revenue from property taxation in order to provide many important municipal services and programs you use every day. The payment of property tax supports the Municipality, the County of Essex and the local school boards.  Property owners receive two tax bills every year (Interim and Final) with each bill having two due dates.
