CHILLIWACK — Due to the ongoing Canada Post labour strike, the Fraser Valley Regional District is reminding residents to pay their quarterly utility bills by the deadline later this month.

FVRD says cheque payments and reminder notices for utility billing are not being delivered, so residents will need to pay by the deadline of December 31. FVRD is quick to point out that the mail service interruption does not affect the deadline for utility payments. If a utility bill remains unpaid by December 31, 2024, the outstanding amount is required to be transferred to residential property taxes as per legislation for regional districts.

There are several ways for FVRD residents to make their payments before the December 31, 2024 deadline.

• Payments in person can be made at the FVRD office at 1-45950 Cheam Avenue in Chilliwack between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday:
  • Please note, the office will be closed from December 25, 2024 until January 2, 2025
    • the limit for Visa/MasterCard payments is $2,000
    • Drop off your cheque after hours by using the mail drop slot at the main entrance doors
    • Payments online can be made at https://myfvrd.ca/TempestApps/LoginManager/

More information on FVRD utility billing is available on the FVRD website https://www.fvrd.ca/EN/main/services/utility-bills.html.
