Pending Canada Post strike

Go Paperless – Stay Connected – Never Miss a Payment

With the pending Canada Post strike, residents are reminded that failure to receive a tax or utility bill, or mailing a payment during the strike, does not relieve you from payment nor liability of penalty/interest of a late payment.

To avoid any missed bills or late payments, we encourage you to sign up for Paperless Billing & also enroll in Pre-Authorized Payments by visiting our Tax & Utility Bills page on our website. You can also find other methods of payment on our Bills & Payments page as well.

Budgets & Finances

Section 290(1) of the Municipal Act requires local municipalities in each year to prepare and adopt a budget. The Municipality of Bayham currently prepares three budgets:

  1. Capital Budget
  2. Operating Budget
  3. 10-Year Capital Plan

Budget Comments and Council Consideration 

Council encourages public consultations during the budget creation process. The purpose of the consultation is to ensure public input, in advisory nature, is heard prior to Council deliberating the budgets. Public comments obtained during the consultation period are incorporated as an appendix within the Staff Report presented to Council during the respective budget meetings. Comment deadlines and meeting dates will be updated on this page for each upcoming budget season. 

The Capital and Operating Budgets for 2025 have been passed and can be viewed below with other historic budget documents.
