This project is to update the online payment form for rural property taxes through the Property Assessment and Taxation (PAT) branch of Community Services. The updated form will allow individuals to use any electronic device (computer, laptop, mobile device, etc.) to access the form and submit payments online. At the time of payment, eligible individuals may also claim their Home Owner Grant (HOG).
Rural property taxes can be remitted online during the period May 15, 12:00am to 11:59pm on July 2 of each calendar year. Outstanding accounts receive a 10% penalty effective July 3 and must be paid in person or by mail.
The web form works in conjunction with Bambora, YG's online payment service to collect payment information. Limited information (transaction ID, date and information entered into the web form are stored in Bambora and are accessible by limited PAT employees for the purpose of reconciling accounts. The scope of this PIA is to replace the online payment system with a web form on the Drupal platform.
