Pay your tax bills, water bills, parking tickets, red light tickets or alarm permit renewals online. Sign up for Direct Pay, which allows you to set up automatic, recurring payments of tax and/or water bills from a checking or savings account. Create a user profile to save time with future online transactions. Note: City website server maintenance takes place the 3rd Saturday of every month from 8:00 am until noon. You may find the online payment services unavailable for a brief period during these times. Online payments made today should be credited to your account within two City business days.
