Property tax programs at the City of Surrey
Ran the 2019 property tax deferment program and oversaw the 2020 tax sale, which closed at a 100% success rate.
Problem
The City of Surrey collects property tax for more than 700,000 residents. Two programs carry a large share of that revenue and of residents' trust: tax deferment and the tax sale.
Role
As a Finance Clerk in Property & Payment Services, I ran one program and oversaw the other.
Solution
I ran the 2019 property tax deferment program, a major source of municipal revenue. I oversaw the 2020 tax sale project from start to finish.
Outcome
- Success rate on the 2020 tax sale
- 100%
- Success rate on the 2020 tax sale
It was early proof that I could run high-stakes work end to end.
