Property assessment appeals may be initiated by any person with an interest in, or that is affected by, the assessed value or classification of any property. You can appeal if you believe there has been an error involving property valuation, property classification, and exemption, the contents of the assessment roll or the assessment notice; however there is no provision to appeal property taxes. A notice of appeal form is included with the assessment notice or is available at the municipal office. Any person who desires to object to the assessment of their property must lodge their appeal in writing with the Secretary of the Nor-Sask Board Services at Box 159, Dundurn, SK, S0K 1K) accompanied by the fee of $50 for each assessment being appealed, which will be returned if the appeal results in a change to the assessment. You can read the Assessment Appeal Guide for Citizen's to learn more about the appeal process.

The Assessment Process and Its Relation to Taxes
SAMA will first determine an assessed value for properties. After that, a provincial government tax policy is applied. The policy multiplies a percentage formula against the assessed value, producing what is called the taxable value.
