How Billing Works
The RM of Edenwold bills for water and sewer services based on past usage.

  • Bills are issued quarterly
  • Each bill reflects the previous three months of usage

Example:
    January–March usage is billed at the end of March
    April–June usage is billed at the end of June
    July–September usage is billed at the end of September
    October - December usage is billed at the end of December

Because billing is based on past usage, rate changes may not appear immediately and will be applied to the appropriate billing period.
