Canada Post Disruption and Municipal Services

Due to the Canada Post strike, delivery of mail such as bills, invoices and correspondence from the Municipality will be impacted.
If you mailed a payment to our office, please be advised that we have processed all mail received to date. If you mailed your cheque last week we encourage you to contact our office to confirm payment has been received: 519-235-0310.
Please note that the responsibility for timely payments remains with the property owner and is not affected by postal service disruptions.
Upcoming bill payment deadlines:
• October 31, 2025 – Stephen Quarterly water bills –  bills will be available for pick up at Town Hall after Thanksgiving weekend
• November 15, 2025 – 2nd installment of 2025 final property tax bills
Learn more about the contingency options that are available, such as eBilling, preauthorized payment plans, and more, using the links below.

During the postal service disruption, utility bills will continue to be issued and the payment due dates will remain unchanged. For those who receive their bills by mail, it is recommended to sign up for paperless billing to ensure you do not miss a payment deadline.

eBilling

To register for paperless billing, account holders can use our online Property Tax and Utility eBilling sign up forms. By signing up for eBilling, you will receive your property tax and utility bill in a PDF format to the email address of your choice in advance of the due date.

Other Contingency Options to Receive Utility Bill Amounts

Residents and businesses may also choose from these additional contingency options to receive your utility bill details:

  1. Collect your paper bill in person at the Municipal Office after Thanksgiving weekend
  2. Call the Municipal Office to request your owed amount over the phone (519-235-0310 ex.233)

Payment Methods

We strongly discourage making payments through postal services during the Canada Post strike, as mailed payments may not be received by the Municipality before the due date and you may face late charges.

There are several contingency options available for residents and businesses to ensure their payments are made:

  1. Payments by Credit Card(online)
  2. Internet or Telephone Banking
  3. In Person
  4. Automated Banking Machines
  5. Pre-Authorized Payment Plan

Learn more about the payment options listed above

Signing up for a Pre-Authorized Payment Plan is an effective way to ensure you never miss a payment deadline.

We offer two pre-authorized payment plans for utility and property tax bills.

  • Due date plan: The amount due is automatically withdrawn from your bank account on the due date.
  • Monthly plan: A predetermined fixed monthly amount is withdrawn from your bank account on the last business day of each month (Property Taxes – January – November, Utilities – January – December). For arrangements or adjustments contact the Financial Services Department.
