District of Summerland Council are supportive of a property tax rate increase of 1.65% for 2021. The average Summerland home assessed at $591,790 will see an increase in annual property taxes of approximately $22.07. Curbside collection fees are also proposed to increase by $2.35 per month (effective March 1, 2021), in part to provide for two unlimited yard waste events in 2021.
Prior to finalizing the 2021 budget, Summerland Council is seeking to obtain public feedback on the proposed 2021 budget.
