The City & Borough of Juneau is receiving a high volume of calls from utility customers who have not received their most recent bills in the mail yet. Please know that these bills were mailed out on November 27 via the U.S. Postal Service. Any concerns from customers about why their bill has not been delivered yet should be directed to the U.S. Postal Service.
In the meantime, all customers are able to check their account balance online at www.invoicecloud.com/cityandboroughofjuneauak. Once there, just click on the “Water/Sewer” button, enter your Customer Number as it appears on your monthly bills, and click “Search Invoices”. More information about how to view and even pay your utility bill online is available at the Utility FAQ page at juneau.org/engineering-public-works/utilities-division/faq. You can also sign up to receive your bill via email, so you know you will always receive it right away.
Please be aware that ongoing mail delays at the U.S. Postal Service may also result in late payments. Utility payments are counted as timely based on when they are received, regardless of when they were mailed, so if you are putting your payment in the mail, allow for possible delays. Avoid the mail altogether and pay online, or place payments in one of our dropbox locations at Superbear IGA, Foodland IGA, and outside the main entrance of City Hall on Heritage Way.
Are you always the last to leave the pool? Do you enjoy helping others build confidence and learn new skills? This is your chance to start your path as an aquatics instructor! Juneau Pools is offering a Water Safety Instructor certification course in January, available at no cost to those applying for a swim instructor position or to the general public at full price. Register online by December 26.
The American Red Cross Water Safety Instructor™ course trains instructor candidates to teach all courses to all age groups, including Learn-to-Swim Preschool and Youth Levels 1-6. This certification is the gold standard and provides the most comprehensive training for swim instructors.
The class will meet from Friday, January 3 through Monday, January 6 at Augustus G. Brown Swimming Pool. A detailed schedule is available in the Parks & Rec registration catalog.
The class also includes a pre-course swim session on Friday, December 27, from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. at AGB Pool. If you are not able to attend the pre-course session, alternative scheduling is available upon request—please call (907) 586-0839 ext. 4148.
The course is free for those who submit a swim instructor job application by December 26, or $400 for general participants. WSI candidates must be age 15 and up, and able to swim 25 yards of front crawl, back crawl, side stroke, breast stroke, and elementary back stroke. Swimming 15 yards of butterfly is optional for a higher level of certification.
