Got questions?

Questions regarding the Water System Fees and Charges By-law should be directed to Roland Welker, Division Manager, Water Engineering, 519-661-2500 ext 5593. The contact for questions regarding the Sewer System Fees and Charges By-law is Tom Copeland, Division Manager, Wastewater & Drainage Engineering, 519-661-2500 ext 4662.

Chances are that the increases will be a “done deal” following the 2009/11/23 Council meeting.
