Water and sewer bills are mailed quarterly, with due dates at the end of January, April, July and October. The option to have your water bills and arrears notices emailed to you is now available. You can register for this service by completing the eBilling Consent Form.
You can make payments by cash, cheque or debit at the Administration Office (35 Alice Street) in person or in the drop box, at your bank, by internet or telephone banking, or by automatic withdrawal.
Credit card payments for water and sewer billing are not accepted directly by the Municipality of Brighton. However, they can be paid online by credit card using an online bill payment service provider such as PaySimply.
PaySimply is neither affiliated nor a partner of the municipality. They may apply service charges and there may be restrictions on the types of credit cards accepted.
The Municipality of Brighton receives only the billed water billing amount. Payment is processed by the municipal finance dept. on the date the funds are received, which may be a few days after payment is made.
Please refer to the service provider's website for terms and conditions of their service, charges and payment processing times.
