Designate Mailing Request

Program Information

The City of Toronto sends one convenient Utility Bill that includes your water charges and solid waste management

fees.

The City provides property owners with the opportunity to have their Utility Bill mailed to a designate, for example a

tenant, son or daughter, lawyer or accountant. To do this, the property owner must agree to the terms and conditions

in the Municipal Code, Chapter 849, Water and Sewage Services and Utility Bill, section 849-27D. An administrative

fee will be applied to each Utility Bill mailed to a designate. Property owners will receive a copy of the Utility Bill. The

City also reserves the right to cancel this Utility Bill Designate Mailing Request for any reason and at any time.

Administrative fees are listed on our

website.

Important Information

As of July 1, 2008, the City of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 849, Water and Sewage Services and Utility Bill

authorizes the following:

•

Property owners remain responsible for the full payment of all water and sewer charges and solid waste fees if

a designate is receiving the Utility Bill.

•

Failure to pay a utility bill by the due date will result in the loss of the water discount and possibly other late

payment charges and fees associated with collection efforts.

•

Property owners are responsible for keeping the City informed of any changes to a designate (i.e. new

tenant). A new Utility Bill Designate Mailing Request form must be completed when a designate changes.

•

The person designated to receive utility bills and notices is also appointed by the property owners as his/her

agent with respect to making payments and granting the City access to the property for purposes relating to

the provision of water and sewer and solid waste management services.

•

If a Utility Bill is not paid on time, the City of Toronto reserves the right to transfer the unpaid balance to the

property owner's property tax account for collection, including any fees related to the transfer of unpaid Utility

Bill to the tax account.

•

If an unpaid Utility Bill is transferred to the property tax account for collection, the Utility Bill Designate Mailing

Request will be cancelled.
