All levels will be the same rate based off of the
implementation of the new Kitchener Swims program
launched in January 2025. Still among the most
expensive in the region. All lessons adjusted to top
group lesson fee from 2025. Lines separated for
flexibility for future adjustments. Fees to increase May
2026 for the start of the spring session with Winter

The City processes approximately 8,300 final utility bills
each year, which often require a final meter reading to
accurately close customer accounts. These readings fall
outside the regular monthly billing cycle and necessitate an
on-site visit by a meter reader. This process results in
additional costs due to fees from our third-party meter
reading provider and extra administrative work for revenue
staff, including initiating the move-out process, scheduling
the reading, and finalizing the bill outside the standard
billing schedule. Municipalities such as Cambridge, Toronto,
and Hamilton charge similar fees.
