Monthly utility billing change

Tuesday, August 15, 2023

Beginning on your October 31st billing date and November 30th billing date, the City of Leduc will move all utility bill customers onto a monthly billing schedule. Account holders will receive an insert in an upcoming utility bill outlining when their account will convert to monthly billing. 
 
We heard from businesses and homeowners that they would prefer the City switch from our current bi-monthly billing cycle to a monthly billing cycle because it allows account holders to: 

Better understand their utility bill 
Monitor their usage more easily 
Budget more effectively 

Account holders who are already enrolled in automatic withdrawals do not have to make any adjustments. 

If you would like to enroll for automatic withdrawals, please register using the following link: www.leduc.ca/utilitypaymentplan
