In an effort to offer financial relief to residents during the coronavirus pandemic, the District of Kent announced the 10 per cent penalty for late water and sewer utility bill payment with due dates between March 31 and May 31 has been reduced to one per cent.
The municipal office – as with essentially all public facilities – is closed to the public to prevent the spread of the virus. However, there are a number of alternative ways to submit utility and tax payments:
Online or phone banking – please contact your financial institution to set this up
In person – there is a secure drop box located at the front door of the municipal office where your cheque can be dropped off
By mail
In person at your financial institution
Payments need to be received by the due dates to avoid penalties.
