Drive-up Box for City and HITEC Bills

Reminders
The City has constructed a new ÒDrive-upÓ drop box in the City Hall parking lot for your convenience with your utility and phone bill payments. If the weather is bad or you have trouble getting up to the building, you can now simply pull-up in you car, open the mail box, drop in your payment or meter card and go. You may use either the drop box, or if you would prefer, you may still use the old drop box at the building.
