Rates differ by area of Airdrie. The table shows the main area. Other areas in 2026:
- General Municipal Annexation - Residential (annexed lands): The bylaw sets a separate general municipal rate for annexed residential property. The bylaw's assessment bases suggest the annexation residential assessment is excluded from the General Municipal, Protective Services and third municipal levy bases and included in the school and seniors foundation bases; the bylaw does not state this in words, so the annexed-area total is not computed (NOT VERIFIED).
Rates as published for the residential class. Bills can also include fixed charges, local improvement levies and utility fees that are not based on assessed value.
