April 15, 2025 – Strathmore, AB – Property owners in Strathmore will see a significant increase in their property tax bills this year due to a sharp rise in the provincial education property tax requisition, announced in Alberta’s 2025 budget.

The budget, released by Finance Minister Nate Horner on February 27, increases Strathmore’s total school tax requisition by 22 per cent, from $5,953,657 million in 2024 to $7,251,997 million in 2025.
