Postal Strike Impacts
The Municipality of Grey Highlands would like to inform residents of potential disruptions related to the Canadian Union of Postal Workers strike that was initiated on Friday, November 15.
Mail delivery to and from the Municipality is expected to be significantly delayed and/or stopped completely for the duration of the strike.
Water, Tax, and other Bills and Payments
- You are responsible for paying your bills on time, even if you do not receive your bill in the mail.
- If you need your balance owing, contact the Finance Department. If you call in and get sent to voicemail, please leave a message with your name, phone number and street address so that staff may return your call.
- We do not recommend mailing your bill payment in the mail. Instead, use an alternative payment option, such as through your bank or financial institution. If you are paying in cash, you will need to come into the municipal office during regular business hours to pay—do not put cash in the drop box.
Contact Finance Department - 519-986-2811 ext. 400
