How does the Town of Ponoka determine what my property taxes will be each year?

Each year, the Town of Ponoka determines how much money it will need to fund the annual budget to pay for all of the services and infrastructure maintenance it provides for the community. 

Ponoka Town Council worked hard to keep the 2026 municipal property tax increase at two per cent (which is lower than inflationary cost increases).

Municipal property taxes pay for important municipal services, such as policing and fire services, roadways, parks and recreation, and much more.

These services help keep the Town of Ponoka running and support quality of life in our community.
