Terms and Conditions

1. Within this Application, ‘I’, ‘me’, ‘we’, ‘you’, ‘our’ and ‘my’ refer to ALL property owner(s) who have signed below.
2. If you choose to change or cancel this Tax Installment Prepayment Plan (TIPP), the Municipality of the District of Lunenburg (MODL) requires the TIPP Change Request Form at least fifteen (15) business days before the next scheduled payment date to change or stop the payment.
3. To cancel your TIPP agreement when you sell your property, a notice of cancellation (using the TIPP Change Request Form) is required before the date of sale, otherwise, any processed TIPPs may not be returnable.
4. This application and its related frequent payments will remain in effect and continue until MODL has received written notice (TIPP Change Request Form) from me requesting change or cancellation at least fifteen (15) business days before the next scheduled debit.
5. Property taxes must be paid in the usual manner until we are notified that our TIPP application is in effect
6. MODL will mail interim and final tax bills, and any outstanding amount owing will need to be paid over and above the amount previously paid by pre-authorized debiting.
7. I understand with respect to the pre-defined and equal monthly payment plans, I will receive written notice from MODL of the amount and the date(s) of debiting, both initially and if/when the dates(s) or amount to be debited change. Notice shall be received at least ten days before the date of the first TIPP.
8. If the total sum of the debiting results in an overpayment of property taxes, MODL will automatically apply the overpayment against next year’s tax amount. Monthly debits are based on an estimate only and are not a warranty or guarantee of the amount of taxes which may be levied.
9. This application will terminate automatically if two pre-authorized payments fail to be honoured by my financial institution, resulting in NSFs. Each NSF results in $15.00 charge to the property owner(s).
10. You have certain recourse rights if any debit does not comply with this agreement. For example, you have the right to receive reimbursement for any debit that is not authorized or is not consistent with this TIPP agreement.
