Assessment is simply a distribution mechanism. The property taxes that you pay are calculated in proportion to the value of the real estate you own. A qualified assessor prepares annual assessments for all property within the Summer Village of Ross Haven.\u00a0 The assessor is dedicated to providing a fair &amp; accurate assessment for the Summer Village of Ross Haven taxpayers.\u00a0 <strong>The assessor can be contacted at 780-939-3310 &#8211; Travis Horne &#8211; Municipal Assessment Services Group.<\/strong><br><br><em><strong>Market Value<\/strong><\/em><br>Market value is the valuation standard set by provincial legislation and is the basis for property valuation across Alberta. Market value is the probable price your property could sell for in a competitive and open market, as of a given date. Market value is recognized as the most understandable, transparent &amp; objective measure of a property&#8217;s worth. The market value as shown on your\u00a0Assessment &amp; Taxation notice is based on a legislated valuation date of July 1st of the prior year and reflects the physical condition of your property as of December 31st of the prior year.<br><br><em><strong>How are Market Value Assessments Prepared<\/strong><\/em><br>Market value assessments are prepared using mass appraisal. This is the process of valuing a group of properties at a given date, using standard methods and allowing for statistical testing. For residential property, assessors compile, review and analyze information from all legitimate real estate sale transactions that have occurred within the Summer Village of Ross Haven over the 12-month period prior to the valuation date. This process results in the estimated value of your property as of July 1st of the prior year.<br><br><em><strong>Assessment Complaint Procedure<\/strong><\/em><br>Assessment complaint deadline for 2025 is Tuesday, July 8, 2025.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-4434ba96-1c0d-4a38-95fe-e80a5c90544f\" href=\"https:\/\/rosshaven.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2025-CRASC-Assessment-Brochure-1.pdf\">2025 CRASC Assessment Brochure<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-095fa357-49d3-424c-8e34-a40a10a57c19\" href=\"https:\/\/rosshaven.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ARB-Municipal-Front-Desk-Manual-2025.pdf\">ARB Municipal Front Desk Manual &#8211; 2025<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-30259a65-2ed5-46a9-9086-cf6dcf5acccd\" href=\"https:\/\/rosshaven.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Assessment-Review-Board-Complaint-Form.pdf\">Assessment Review Board Complaint Form<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-18e3c1c9-12c9-48b7-b4a8-914557f02902\" href=\"https:\/\/rosshaven.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ARB-Withdrawal-and-Agreement-to-Correction-of-Assessment-Form-2025.pdf\">ARB Withdrawal and Agreement to Correction of Assessment Form 2025<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TAXATION ?This is certification under Sections 310(4) &amp; 336(1) of the Municipal Government Act that 2025\u00a0Combined Assessment and Tax Notices were mailed to all property owners in the Summer Village of Ross Haven on April 25, 2024.
