The City of Owen Sound wants to help ease the financial burden on its residents during the COVID-19 crisis.
The city has stated it will not charge any interest or penalty charges on any tax or water/wastewater bills for a period of three months, effective March 17, 2020.
City Hall remains closed to the public, therefore tax, utility and accounts receivable payments will not be accepted in person.
Over the last several days, City of Owen Sound officials have engaged in extensive conversation and consultation with the Grey Bruce Public Health Unit respecting COVID-19.
This penalty and interest-free period may be extended depending on the duration of closures.
Online and telephone banking can be used or by calling 519-376-4440 and selecting 0 to pay bills (including tax and utility payments) with a credit card until further noted.
