Assessments
Assessment Notices are mailed out at the beginning of each year. The Assessment Roll opens for 30 days (the roll is open for 60 days on revaluation years), when Assessment Notices are mailed. While the roll is open, anyone can view property assessment information for their own property and other properties within the municipality by visiting the SAMAView website. Once the roll closes and any appeals are processed, tax notices are issued.

Should you have questions about your assessment, don’t hesitate to contact SAMA office. Please note they cannot answer questions related to taxation.
The provincial government mandates SAMA to conduct periodic revaluations of all Saskatchewan properties every four years to coincide with the change to a new base date. The current revaluation was completed in 2025 using the 2023 base year. When a revaluation is completed, SAMA provides new values to each of our clients. Provincial legislation requires municipalities to use these values when determining taxes.

An appeal should be filed by completing the form on the back of your Assessment Notice and delivering it to the Municipal Office with the appeal fee.
