Canada Post Strike Action

Due to the strike action by Canada Post postal workers, mailings for Town of Pelham residents, suppliers and customers will be impacted. 

Town of Pelham property owners and residents are responsible for property tax and water payments.  

Water Bills: The Town of Pelham’s bi-monthly water bills from July to August, were mailed to residents using Canada Post earlier in September. Residents should have received this bill prior to the current strike action.

The payment due date is 4:30 p.m. on Monday, September 29, 2025. 

Payments can be made:

  • In person at Town Hall during regular business hours using cash, debit or cheque. 
  • Cheque payments may also be provided in the drop box located at the lower-level entrance of Town Hall at 20 Pelham Town Square. 
  • Online payments through financial institutions and online banking are also accepted. 
  • Credit card payments are also accepted through Paymentus by visiting www.pelham.ca/payments, a convenience fee charge applies.
  • E-billing for water bills is available and can be set up on the water accounts by completing the request form found here https://forms.pelham.ca/eBilling-Registration-Form

Regular penalties for late payments will apply. 

Pre-Authorized Payment: Pre-authorized automatic withdrawal payment plans offer an easy, hassle-free payment option. Payments are always made on-time, avoiding any late payment charges and residents do not have to wait in line to make payments. There are no administration fees or charges by the Town to join any of these plans. To enroll in a pre-authorized payment plan, please visit www.pelham.ca/pap to review the terms and conditions and complete the application form.

Property Tax: Property tax reminders are typically mailed to owners in December. Residents can reach out to the Property Tax Team to inquire about any unpaid balances at taxes@pelham.ca. 

Accounts Payable: For any vendor receiving cheque payments delivered by mail, there are expected delays in receiving reimbursement. Vendors may collect their cheques in person by providing valid identification at the time of pickup at Town Hall.

Pelham Celebrates Official Unveiling of National Mural Mosaic at Meridian Community Centre

The Town of Pelham is proud to announce the successful unveiling of the Canada Connects: Nature’s Sky Mural Mosaic, now on permanent display at the Meridian Community Centre. The ribbon-cutting ceremony, held on June 17, 2025, marked the official reveal of the community-driven work of art that celebrates creativity, connection, and Canadian unity.

 

As part of Mural Mosaic’s Global Roots Project, the Nature’s Sky mural is made up of hundreds of individual tiles, each painted by artists from across the country and beyond. Of those, 150 tiles were painted by residents in Pelham, giving the national project a strong local presence and personal significance for many in the community.

 

“Murals like this do more than just brighten a wall—they help inspire pride in our community and help bring people together,” said Mayor Marvin Junkin. “Community members and staff helped to paint 150 of the tiles right here in Pelham. This mural is colourful, creative, and tells a powerful story about connection.”
