Property Tax Deferral

The Town of Caledon is deferring all remaining 2020 property tax payments by approximately two months for taxpayers who are experiencing financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It’s important that we do our best to help Caledon residents during this difficult time,” said Mayor Allan Thompson. “Deferring tax payments is something that all of Council felt strongly about, and we hope that this will help lighten some of the stress that taxpayers might be feeling at this time.”
