What is the Assessment Review Board?

The Assessment Review Board (the Board) is established under the Municipal Government Act to hear complaints against property assessments. The Board is a special tribunal appointed annually by Council. 

The Province of Alberta made legislative changes effective January 1, 2010 that affect the assessment complaint process.

Some important highlights of these changes include:

  • Specific complaint and authorization forms must be used and be filled out completely to have a valid appeal. 
  • There is a 60 day period between the mailing of an assessment notice and the date that complaints must be filed. 
  • Timelines have been created for scheduling hearings and the requirements for disclosing documentary evidence to support the issues under complaint.
