Revenue Services is conducting a tax sale for properties with significant unpaid taxes. 875 Richmond Road is on the list of properties for sale.
Under Part XI of the Municipal Act, the City is required to advertise the sale of the properties for four consecutive weeks in local publication(s) (English and French) and once in the Ontario Gazette. We are advertising sixteen (16) properties. Seven (7) of the 16 properties are vacant land (residential), 1 is vacant commercial land, 3 have commercial buildings, 1 has a residential/commercial building and 4 have a residence on the property.
The tender opening will be held at 101 Centrepointe Drive, The Ben Franklin Place Chamber, on Tuesday, February 25, 2025, at 3:00 pm.
Listing a property for tax sale is done only as a last resort. Prior to arriving at this stage, numerous tax bills, statements and notices have been sent to the property owner. Revenue staff have made many attempts to arrange a satisfactory repayment schedule with the property owners. Each property owner has had plenty of opportunity to keep the City from taking this serious action. To be eligible for the tax sale, the property owner must owe taxes from 2022 and prior.
Residents can refer to the Sale of properties with unpaid taxes page on Ottawa.ca or call 613 580 2740 for more information.
