Education Taxes
Municipalities, including Okotoks are legislated to bill and collect school taxes on behalf of the Provincial Government. The Town collects education tax from property owners through your property tax bill and forwards it to the province, but we do not set or control the amount collected.
While the Town bills and collects school taxes, the Town has no jurisdiction or control over school board budgets or operations.
