The City of Prince George is urging residents to be aware of delays in mail services due to the Canada Post workers' strike.
While this disruption may affect the delivery of utility bills, parking tickets, and other payments, the city is reminding residents that they are still responsible for meeting payment deadlines.
Residents are encouraged to use online or in-person methods to pay their bills.
With utility bills for metered services due on Friday, Nov. 22, the city advises residents who typically send payments by mail to consider alternative methods to avoid late fees and processing delays. Any payments that have already been mailed may experience delays, and residents are encouraged to explore other payment options to ensure timely delivery.
For residents who have already mailed cheques, the city recommends making alternate payment arrangements. Once the payment is received, the mailed cheque will be destroyed.
