The City of Ottawa is sharing information about a property tax relief program that may be available to property owners whose properties were significantly affected by the July 1, 2026 extreme weather event.

To be considered, property owners must submit an application by February 28, 2027. Applications should be accompanied by pictures of the damaged areas and any other supporting documentation that is available. Eligible properties may receive a prorated adjustment to their 2026 property taxes.

There are several options available for submission:

If you have any questions, please contact Revenue Services at 613-580-2444 (TTY: 613-580-2401) or email taxadjustments@ottawa.ca.
