- All municipalities are required by law to follow the guidelines within the MGA.
- Assessors use sales information to calculate the value of your property. This means that market value, not the assessor, determines the value of your property. Similar properties will have comparable assessed values.
- All farmland properties are now assessed using the Productivity Levels prescribed in the current provincial legislation designed to measure the potential capability of farmland to produce income from farming operations.

First, if you believe your property assessment is inaccurate, please contact the County Assessor at 780-674-3331. If you and the assessor cannot come to an agreement, you may proceed by filing a formal complaint to the Clerk of the Assessment Review Board. The Assessment Review Board has the authority to review your assessment and direct the Assessor.
An assessment complaint must be filed using the Government of Alberta Assessment Review Board Complaint Form. Alternatively, if you intend to have an agent submit a complaint on your behalf, it must be authorized in writing on the Government of Alberta Assessment Complaints Agent Authorization Form
It is important to complete all fields on the complaint form that are relevant to your property. This will help the assessment review board clerk schedule the appropriate amount of time for your hearing to allow the board members to familiarize themselves with your case prior to the hearing.
The Government of Alberta has published a guide on Filing a Property Assessment Complaint and Preparing for Your Hearing.
