quarterly billing period over the previous two years. The
Consolidated Waterworks Regulation Bylaw No. 5260, 2023
14

Fee set out in Schedule B;
b) excess volume multiplied by 25% of the Metered Water
Volume Fee set out in Schedule B; and
c) the water leaks administration fee set out in Schedule C.
13.7.3 Provided that the total recalculated fee as determined above
is less than the original quarterly billing, the Director of
Finance may rebate the difference.
13.8
Unpaid Amounts
When any fees, rates, or charges due by any person under this bylaw
remain unpaid on the 31st of December, the same will be deemed to
be taxes in arrears in respect of the property to which the service
