### Payments for Taxes and Water at Banks
Effective June 6, 2016 banks will no longer process water and tax bill payments using paper based processes. You can continue to make water and tax payments through electronic bill payment options, but they will no longer accept bill payments that require a paper stub. Sorry for the inconvenience, however, this is a bank policy change and not a Township of St. Clair policy change. Options for water and tax payments are in person, mail, on-line banking, telephone banking and pre-authorized payments. Preauthorized forms can be found below.
### Preauthorized Tax Payments
Taxpayers who wish to enroll in the Pre-authorized Tax Payment plan can complete and return the pre-authorized form available by clicking here or can call the Tax Office to request one. If your payment is late, a penalty charge of 1.25% will be added the day following the due date and the first day of each month thereafter.
Pre-authorized tax payment form
Pre-authorized tax change payment form (this form is for changes to or cancellation of pre-authorized payments previously set up)

Your final tax bill is calculated out as follows: assessment x tax rates less interim levy. You should have received a notice from the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) only if your assessment changed in the previous year.

### Outdated Information:
### Tax Capping Parameters:
**Please note tax capping has been discontinued in the Township.** Tax capping is a mandated Province wide (calculated at the County level) method of ensuring commercial, industrial, and multi-residential properties do not face tax increases greater than 10% of the previous years taxes. This is paid for by increasing the taxes of properties with decreasing assessment in the same tax class. Feel free to call our office if you require further information.
